Once you zoom out to the bigger picture of dozens of devs writing the code rather than yourself, its more a matter of "statistically, if I recommend functional over OOP, how simple will the code be a year from now".

But granted it needs to be part of a broader pressure to keep things simple, otherwise devs will like you say, find a way to overcomplicate.
