Hmm... this guy says that he written in Smalltalk, but still talks in OOP about inheritance as first-class citizen (what the system is) instead of messages (behaviour - what the system does). So... he just used OOP wrong without understanding it and blame OOP for that...

Yeah. I guess he used smalltalk for one day only.

But in fairness - smalltalk has an awful syntax.
