I mostly agree with what you're saying, but I will add that is is also possible to write well-designed, modular, easy-to-test (minimal mocks) OOP code. It does provide more guns to shoot yourself in the foot with, I will admit.

Yes you are correct. Check out smalltalk, it fits the paradigm you describe. It was actually rated the most productive programming language in the world according to namcook. Ironically, it's Definitely one of the least popular languages as well.
