This is why Liskov's Substitution Principle is good: Thinking of it as a
law helps lead to better design.
In this case, the same parameter doing different things in different
sub-classes meant that instances of those sub-classes had difficulty
substituting for the superclass. Interrogating the design against the
LSP reveals that.

I'm glad you discovered them :-)
