True but in statically typed languages we have a lot of options now. It's interesting to see how c# and C++ have developed and what approaches new languages are taking. My own practices have definitely changed over the last 25 years, where I initially used class hierarchies to model my problems I now think in terms of interfaces. Also, with everything being connected I just don't worry about building large monolithic systems composed of class libraries any more.
