I'd severely doubt that: there is a large difference in focus on theory vs practice between conferences. POPL really is one of the more theoretical conferences. At a conference like ECOOP, you're unlikely to see many proofs (I'd guess at most 20% of papers, based on personal experience).

I did the same thing for ECOOP 2024: https://2024.ecoop.org/track/ecoop-2024-papers#program

Claude estimates 10 papers related programming languages and its features and 27 related to theory, verification etc.
