There are of course some cases where it's ok to use the is/as operators in your code.
What cases do you tolerate ?

I seriously have no idea how you only have 800 subs. I said the same thing to another channel last year and she just hit 20k. Hope you see the same results, your content is on point.

I don't get it, why not just use the strategy pattern and give the method you want to a unit with scriptable object? You would need only one unit script and it would call the method you give it with an SO. Why go threw the hassle of this pattern?
