Super typical developer thinking :) two pieces of code look the same but are not doing the same things.

I usually see it when people implement add/edit for some entity, that should be separate forms but are crammed into one to be "DRY".

This is why views are so nice. You can reuse the view and controller logic and only write a new data model that updates instead of creates (tbh though those can just be two functions on some data model.)

On the contrary, CRUD forms are an ideal candidate for being schema-driven.
