   casey muratori would like to have a talk with you about the following :))

       // Approximately what the JIT generates
       if (animal?.GetType() == typeof(Dog))
       {
           ((Dog)animal).Speak();  // devirtualized, inlinable
       }
       else
       {
           animal.Speak(); // original virtual call, hopefully rare
       }

      You can always just not use OOP. C#'s tooling for functional programming and C-style programming is really good, thanks to stuff like statics on interfaces or spans.
