Is there multiple places? Is it hard to create a specific function out
of a generic one? (which can be used from other places and your
specific can't and we would need the generic one anyway).
"Generic" is not about "multiple places". Generic is about "general"
as opposite to "specific". Gives you flexibility and wider application
range.
