One of the oddities of early OOP was that it was often touted as being "more natural" than the "old way". But when designers used OOP and inheritance "wrong", experts said, "well, you did it wrong; you need more training." If it takes special training to do it "right", it's not "natural" by definition. There is a right time and place to use OO (and inheritance) and wrong places and times to use it, and it takes training AND experience to know the difference. Further, a lot of it depends on the language; some languages have poor OO models, forcing one to use lambda's etc. instead. In my opinion, a better OO language reduces the need to use lambdas. I know this is a controversial statement, but I stand by it.
