SOLID's mutual reinforcement serves dual strategic purposes: defensively, it combats software rot by creating a self-reinforcing bulwark (where a principle violation in one area surfaces through violations in others, enabling early detection); offensively, it grounds pattern judgment by providing a coherent framework where principles illuminate pattern applicability from multiple reinforcing angles simultaneously.
Mutual reinforcement produces both defensive (rot detection) and offensive (judgment guidance) value
