You might assume I understood, but let me be clear: I didn't really know how much of it worked anymore.

** Could you please provide an example of the proper solution 'class generator'? I am facing a similar problem now and this would be very helpful **

Yes, I had failed to see the proper solution: a class generator — so that I didn't have to manually copy code again. It actually existed back then, I simply didn't know about it, no one told me about it, and I wasn't smart enough to question myself once I started going down a certain path.
