[Showerthoughts] Object Oriented Programming is superior to other types of programming and thats why it is taught in Universities.

Nothing beats reusability!! All OOP stuff are hidden in classes, so you just import a package, use a class without knowing what the class does.
For instance, I can write my own secure Crypto application even so it takes mastery of computer science. Using OOP is like using tools other people write, you can be an idiot and still be a hacker!!

OOP in the hand of idiots can bring your projects to disaster. And I have seen a lot of idiots. I actually have seen so many idiots that I wonder why after 25 years of OOP in the industry people still can't create good classes.
You have no idea how many OOP abuse I have seen. They wrap everything in classes but the classes are built the wrong way. They use it as a glorified namespace pretending to be OOP.

Universities also teach "Women's Studies", so, the curriculum is no benchmark for the quality of anything.
