Private nested static class - Good or bad practice?

Question

Would it be considered a bad practice to nest a private static class inside of a non-static class?

public class Outer
{
    private static class Inner
    {
         


        

Answer 1

There's nothing wrong at all with this, and why should there be?

The scope is limited, so that only instances of the outer class have access to it, and it's a great place to put constants and other common functionality that is private to the functionality of the outer class, without having to instantiate it all the time.

I don't see this as anything but good practice.
