Just a couple funny posts.

E, nobody said DIP was automatically better, just a tool. You like
abstraction, except when someone points out a link to one of UB's
principles.

In C++, there are always more ways to cascade a recompile than to change a
_logical_ dependency. Many files will recompile which a programmer knows had
no need to.

However, the C++ architectural principle that permits very aggressive
compiling and very decoupled linking is the ability to put only interfaces
into .h files, and only implementation into .cpp files. So high-quality,
large C++ programs must invert their dependencies, or they will recompile
forever.
