I think the problem with OOP is something you can see whenever legislation is linked with prestige (it happens a lot in real life). The number of good possible rules is quite limited, and the number of people who want to make a name for themselves by championing them seems to be infinite. If you can't find a good rule to claim as your own, you have to pick a bad rule and try to gaslight people into thinking it's a necessary and beneficial. Enough people do that, and we end up with modern OOP.
