> again IMO, demonstrate that the author never really understood OOP. I find arguments like this (legitimately fascinating). Obviously an amount of investment into learning common concepts is required. At the same time, if a topic is too complex for most to "truly understand" than it isnt useful. How do we know the difference? What standards do we hold other coders to, and what expectations do we hold ourselves to? I'd love to hear if there is much research on the topic. It is easy to find opinion articles, hard to fund data.
