  1. I like this approach however I don’t think it is ideal for the example given since you can’t externalize your strings and would need to make a code change to add or change definitions. With switch/case externalizing strings is simple.

    More an issue with the example than the approach though.

  2. I don’t think your approach is incorrect but the example given should probably use externalized stringsto allow new definitions to be added without code changes.
