So instead of doing a refactor to support the new functionality you
want (a moderately fiddly job to change "many other places" - but an
opportunity to DRY them up...), you're going to plan to bodge in
something that will make it practically impossible to ever refactor
this area of code in the future. This will make any future
functionality changes in this area an absolute nightmare.

Google "technical debt".
