Are you designing an interface that will be expensive to change later?

If not, my advice is to not second-guess yourself. If there is something
seriously wrong with how you have the code organized now, it will become
obvious during program maintenance. Refactor then.

Especially if you have perfectionist tendencies, it is very easy to
spend far more time and energy thinking about decisions than they are
worth. I am very, very familiar with that problem. :-)
