For me the point of OOP is that it isn’t a paradigm like procedural, logic or functional programming. Instead, OOP says “for every problem you should design your own paradigm”. In other words, the OO paradigm really is: Programming is Modeling Bingo. The biggest problem I deal with in an OO language is people (especially non-programmers like business analysts) trying to "model the world" with class diagrams and inheritance trees. It only leads to endless debates about whether something is-a something else, or has-a something else, and it takes a lot of time away from implementing the solution to the actual problem.
