I rarely see points like your’s raised (reference based versus value based) in the OOP vs FP debate, but these nuanced points really play a big role in the ability to produce quality code. I have constantly gone back and forth on my opinion on OOP vs FP, and it mostly comes down discovering an expressive feature of a new language tipping me back to the other side. Using an OOP language with structural typing was one of these instance. Structural typing isn’t really an OOP thing, but that highlights how blurry the lines can actually be as to what is considered as OOP vs FP.
