Agreed. OOP is obnoxiously convoluted at times and—I feel anyway—never fully delivered on its promises of reuse. I've been using Elixir for about five years now and I never want to write another line of OOP code. I don't care what language it is in.

This has been my experience as well. I left Elixir for a brief stint with Kotlin, a modern OOP language, and it was jarring how many abstractions and incidental complexity I had to wrangle with to be productive and ship well-tested features.
