Why learn anything at all then? Why bother learning OOP paradigms if procedural just works? Why bother ...? Do you see the flaw in your argument?

- passivate 5y agoI think the flaw is you misinterpreting the argument. In my opinion, the bottom line with obvious caveats is this - Human-time is more valuable than CPU-time. If you are shipping at scale then the calculus is different - Don't waste end-users' human-time and their cpu-time and/or server's cpu-time. If you're writing code with a team the calculus is different - Use/Learn techniques and tools to reduce the teams' human-time wastage plus all the above. If you're writing code just for yourself the calculus is different - Save your own human-time.
