This is all awfully vague. Accordingly, all the comments are just talking past each other. What does "85% functional" mean? How exactly do you measure that?

This is all awfully vague. Accordingly, all the comments are just talking past each other. What does "85% functional" mean? How exactly do you measure that? For that matter, what does "OOP" mean? PG published a note from Jonathan Rees [1] which lists 9 possible (pieces of) definitions. "Because OO is a moving target, OO zealots will choose some subset of this menu by whim and then use it to try to convince you that you are a loser." That's roughly what I'm seeing here, yes.
