PR Summary

Sci/Tech Reviewer: @t00sa
Code Reviewer: @ericaneininger

The Abstract class and 2 real classes setup was a bit clunky.
I thought I could merge the two into one real class, but after trying that it transpires I needed a subclass to overwrite the behaviour of the check method for external runners.

Whilst I'm still struggling at times with the Linters VS Code deploys on the desktop, this change seems to have "re-discovered" a bunch of lines that are too long, in a file I'd not touched. There was a messed up "merge of main" which I presume caused this, but I'm just baffled.
