This is a very well written answer and I agree entirely with the approach. In my particular case something this verbose would be overkill to the infinite degree considering the trivial code behind each. To put it in perspective, imagine the code is simply performing a Console.WriteLine(n). That is practically the equivalent of what the code I was working with was doing. In 90% of all other cases, your solution is definitely the best answer when following OOP.

Yeah fair point, this approach is not useful in every situation. I wanted to put it here because it's common for developers to get fixated on one particular approach to solving a problem and sometimes it pays to step back and look for alternatives.

I completely agree with that, it’s actually the reason I ended up here because I was trying to solve a scalability issue with something another developer wrote out of habit.
