This code wouldn't compile, for starters.

But it could be `IValidator<object>`, in the worst case. That being said, why not make a `class ThingValidator<T> : IValidator<T> {}`, for all the lack of detail we have?

There aren't enough details here to demonstrate the weaknesses of generics.

Thats the point. You need an `IValidator` interface.

The reason it won't compile is that the code, as given, has two classes with the same name.
