Yeah, but, whipped potatoes are not mashed potatoes... very different.

If I was concerned about made in advance that just needed reheating,
and there was leeway on whether mashed or whipped or whatever, then I
may as well do something really good... I'd prepare potato k'nish, or
potato blintz, or better yet potatonik.
