The OOP in Python isn't bolted on. It was there from the first version I ever saw in the 90s.

You're absolutely right, not sure where I thought I had read that.

Edit: It's actually a bit less clear cut when you consider new vs old style classes, which took the Python 3 discontinuity to resolve. But still, it was wrong to imply that Python didn't originally support OOP.
