## Description
'**Intent**: Identify classes that don't do enough to warrant being separate classes.

**Context**: You have classes with very few methods or fields, or classes that have become redundant due to refactoring.

**Solution**: Merge the class into another class using Inline Class, or remove it entirely if it's no longer needed.'



## Use Cases
Use when classes are too small or serve little purpose.
