> Do you think we will ever see: "Math - The Trillion Dollar Disaster"? Close! We have "Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics". Tongue-in-cheek aside, it's one of those things where the more good you do the more bad you do. If X has a trillion dollars of good impact, it'll more trivially have a few million of bad impact at least. It's like a weird inverse Amdahl's law. OOP definitely solved a huge class of issues for a lot of people better than the "average state-of-the-art" at the time, and introduced a lot of people to even reasoning around concepts like encapsulation and abstraction. Was it the best thing ever for all time forever and ever? Did it have contemporary ideas that could have been perfect forever? Sure. Does that mean it did more harm than good. Questionable.
