> How does one "over-engineer" a functional environment? By breaking functions down into even smaller pieces? By minimizing side-effects even further than before? These are all good things to do no matter what. Off hand, overly tight coupling of unrelated by superficially comparable functions. Of course one can also do this in OOP environments as well. This is related to "God Functions" that are meant to handle way too much. There's also those who fundamentally fail to understand what the point of FP is. The belief that it's just "my function isn't in a class."
