Note that the performance of Enum.Parse() is awful, because it is implemented via reflection. (The same is true of Enum.ToString, which goes the other way.)
If you need to convert strings to Enums in performance-sensitive code, your best bet is to create a Dictionary<String,YourEnum> at startup and use that to do your conversions.

not that much different here, uh?
I also like dynamic features a lot cuz they are handy to use, but I would just go with a completely dynamic programming language like Python if I'm gonna use dynamic features throughout my program
