Agreed. Dr. Samek says as much too and presents an object-oriented version of C, C+, in Practical Statecharts in C/C++.
Thank-you for your replies. If you happen to see this comment, I wanted to ask about reification.
The pattern is the idea, the design reifies--"makes real"--the pattern. Something else--whether code, constellation of programs, or pigeons--implements the design.
There can be many reifications of a pattern, and there can be many implementations of a design.
Do those ideas ring true?

I've seen this done. Human-readable instructions coexist with SQL snippets and scripts. However, once it becomes tribal knowledge, folks may not understand it.
If manual approvals had also been processed through a pipeline instead of emails and "stop and start," it may have still been in use.
