Unity 2021 Use Scriptable Object instead of Enum

"Why can't I create Enum values from all of my weapon in my prefab folder?!"
-me few years ago

When I was learning how to use Enums in Unity I knew that they are meant to represent state of something ex player has a WeaponType.Sword. This was wrong thinking. While they are good to represent ex cardinal directions (assuming that no one will add more) adding new enum for a new weapon type or anything that is certain to change / grow is not the way. Scriptable objects (and a bit of Object Oriented design) are. Let me show you why :)
