When I see the same pattern over and over that's when I most want to refactor into a common function/method. The repetition is annoying and the solution is easy and obvious. If the cases were all different it'd be much more complicated and chances are there wouldn't be a simple function that covered all cases. Do you not usually refactor duplicated code? What *do* you refactor? I'd find it more interesting if there > were a larger variety of cases > This sort of sounds like the problem. The examples aren't meant to be interesting.
