Btw you are commenting out the difference between the actions ;) I could make any code duplicated if I remove the differences :P

Thanks, I'll add your justification to the article. Maybe you want to add that to the description so people if curious why all the duplication. They will understand why this isn't meant to be a final completely polished code generator.
