I always disliked the huge list of acronym parameters that got passed to these constructor methods, and I stylistically prefer the proposed patch. But as I commented, the bunch of conditionals isn't that nice either and if someone can come up with a nice solution that combines the best of both worlds then I'm all for it.

Are you concerned about the performance implications of making this choice dynamic or just objecting that something that can be static should be static?
