Functional may solve lots of problems, but you can't deny the advantages of a good OO design.
OO benefits tremendously from Functional programming. It's much, much easier to develop in a system where you can treat calling most of the methods on most objects as if they were stateless. A system that uses less state is more flexible and easily changed. A system that better encapsulates state is also more flexible and easily changed.
