Method Priest

Fleeting

Someone that defends a method so much per lost sight of whether or not the method is appropriate in the context (pragmatisme).

• see,
  • is/ought_problem,
  • estimation priests,
  • measure-objective inversion,

I could find this phenomenon when dealing with well established software development paradigms like SOLID. Often, people use those without thinking about the impact and the resulting code becomes a big ball of nice looking mud, where each class is duplicated into interface/class (using a too strong interpretation of the dependency inversion principle).
