With a class you can inherit all of the base class functionality
into a new customer type. You do not have to break open the base
class to add a case, you just have to create an extension class.
Documentation is unique to each class.

Yes, but I could do that procedurally from within the customer
function by simply adding a customer type (needed regardless) and
using a switch to direct and collect the additional data needed.
In either case, I still have to write more code to accommodate

Not trying to hijack the thread... Hopefully this is related enough,
if not I apologize. Would a good use of a class be to write a generic
database connection script? and then feed in the different variables,
such as customer login, database, stuff like that?
