A comment on On DRY and the cost of wrongful abstractions. Parent comment
I like to think of this as: DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) needs to be weighed against DRY (Don't Refactor... Yet).
This can be mitigated somewhat by liberal and thoughtful use of SemVer or equivalent.
(There is also, of course somewhat tongue in cheek; WET - Write Everything Twice)
