Also every time you catch yourself doing any sort of copy-paste, it is quite possible that it can be replaced by mixin / template mixin instead. Application that are built in more declarative way benefit more from such tool set than traditional imperative ones.

In have a couple of case that always require me to find some other instance of it, and then copy/paste, But then I need to edit the pasted code anyway because in any particular case it needs to deal with different command info, so how can mixins help me? I have already dealt with the yada-yada cases by old-fashioned OOP.

From the various answers to this question I have concluded that I should not worry about it. If there's a need for a template I think I am already recognizing it.
