Single-purpose methods produce minimal focused signatures and clear testable roles. Applying SRP systematically helps prevent Feature Envy from reappearing. The polymorphic approach of one subclass per type adheres to the Single Responsibility Principle. The Single Responsibility Principle says each class should have exactly one reason to change. The Single Responsibility Principle states that a class should have only one reason to change, meaning it is responsible for exactly one job or concern.

Replacing an email provider requires modifying the UserProfile class when SRP is violated, which risks breaking unrelated user data logic.
