Good question. I wanted to say that if you are using a variable you
sometimes cannot decide whether it's better to se a generic or
non-generic type. But the only thing that came to my mind was a counter
(generic) that has to be saved to a binary file (non-generic). Bad
example. Maybe not even worth to talk about. Forget about it.
