What I learned from the object-oriented fad was that it doesn't matter: many developers will write bad code no matter what. Making it easier to focus on low coupling and high cohesion (the retconned goals of OO since those principals were pulled into software about the same time simula was created) is not enough. Software writers actually have to do it, and do it without over-complicating what they've written.
