In your top-level comment you argued it's a bad model and didn't really give an explanation for why. You just make assertions that things are pathological/overly-complex/error-prone in OOP and that other alternatives are better, that it's impossible to reason about memory layout, etc. But I could just as easily assert the opposite is true: that proper OOP does simplify problems down to manageable parts, that encapsulation is what you're supposed to do in proper OOP, that abstracting away memory layout is a good thing, etc... I'm not sure if you find these compelling or not, but if not, then I guess you could see why others feel similarly about your arguments.
