It makes a difference for categorizing and talking about OOP though.

If the default level is good, and some people take it to absurd counterproductive levels, you need to give a bit of a warning.

If the default level is absurd and counterproductive, but using a fraction that much is good, you need to approach the conversation in an entirely different way and "OOP is bad" is kind of correct and important to address.

Again, your argument boils down to "doing bad stuff is bad", which I completely agree with.

"Do it the right way!" is not very helpful advice, though.

We want to be able to say that one type of OOP is good and another is bad with relatively specific examples. We should have different terms for those types.

You did the equivalent of replying to someone talking about nutritional tactics with "tl;dr eat healthy". Yeah, figuring out healthy is why we're here, looking at these different techniques and sub-techniques and figuring out at what point they become counterproductive.
