That list is actually making fun of what you're describing in the JS community. "Not Awesome" is a play on the "Awesome" lists like this [https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome]

JS classes were extremely hyped up a year ago. Taking a stance against classes was going very hard against the hype.

How well your devs understand the code is the only real metric. If you understand OOP better, stick with it!

Huh, I must have missed the "classes are great" wave. I only remember the "classes are bad" FUD represented by this list... HN is my main connection to the hype train these days since I quit Twitter.

Agreed.
