not mentioned in the article is that apparently Moose is a really good OO system for perl, but (in my opinion) about 10 years too late.

How is it too late? Ten years ago, significant pieces of Moose did not exist anywhere.

You can make the argument that if Perl 5 had had a better OO system not borrowed from Python, Moose might not exist now. That may be true in part, but I suspect significant pieces of Moose would still have to exist.

Moose is a great OO system, period. I'm sorry that it's too late for you, but it's not too late for me :)
Too late for modern Perl or too late for something else?
