"Native"? "At home"? "Happy Commoner in the Kingdom of Nouns[0]"? Or stockholm syndrome... I kind of get on "no static methods! 'util' and 'helper' are smells!" bends myself from time to time in order to make designs clearer and unit testing somewhat saner (because the even more sane approach of writing or refactoring to smaller pure functions and keeping them that way is too much to ask for sometimes) but it's all just because I spend too much time working in an insane language with a broken idea of what OOP is. Still, I appreciate write-ups like the author's, and at least he's right about immutability being good in general.
