Is there a stricter version of .Single() such that an exception is thrown if more than one comes back from said query? I can always create an extension method, but wondered if I was reinventing something that already exists.

Single()already throws anInvalidOperationExceptionif the result contains more than one element (or if it is empty). You were probably confusing it withFirst(), which doesn’t throw if there is more than one element.
