Frankly I'm on Team Fish Bucket.

I am not totally convinced--well, not at all convinced, really-- that the OOP revolution made programming code better, simpler, easier to follow, than procedural code.

I suppose the argument ended up being a philosophical discussion about where State was held in a running program (hard to tell in procedural code, perhaps, and easier to tell in OOP), but after 20+ years of Java I wonder if baby hadnt disappeared down the plughole with the bathwater.
