✅ Receiving any instance of a generic class in a method, no matter what the generic type is.
Anyway, sorry if I derailed the conversation, but it did genuinely help me understand some more concepts! Thanks @ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ and @Denis for the help, and thanks for the genuinely interesting conversation! :)

I think it's more of a matter of where you want to be explicit, not as much as if it is or isn't explicit? "The first point is that both implementations provide the fundamental decoupling that's missing in the naive example - in both cases application code is independent of the concrete implementation of the service interface. The important difference between the two patterns is about how that implementation is provided to the application class. With service locator the application class asks for it explicitly by a message to the locator. With injection there is no explicit request, the service appears in the application class - hence the inversion of control." (highlight is my own)

https://martinfowler.com/articles/injection.html This I think represents a little bit what we are discussing

If they create and store the publisher, then they are going to do something with publishers

Well, to be fair, I do think that my system is quite explicit: 
this.pub = Facade.Publisher(...);

// Later
this.pub.Publish(...);
this.pub = Facade.Publisher(...);

// Later
this.pub.Publish(...);

Sure it's more contrived, they need to add more lines of code to be able to do something that isn't ideal, but they can still do that

Although, I could argue that the user can still configure the DI framework so they can call RemovePublisher from a DTO

But if we are coding on the principle that the user is dangerous, then we need to safeguard against everything

If I was using DI I'd have to have one point where I'd register all my events, and then both invokers and observers would have to request a reference to that event. In my system, it's all abstracted behind one class.

When what I have is effectively a number of events that I can invoke at any time, and a number of observers interested in those events

I do still have a hard time making the connection that "it's intuitively better to just jump from the system I'm implementing to a DI framework"
