Java classes are no more enabling of shit code than any other language. Idiots can and do “vomit” code into pre-canned structures built for them in any language.
Java was, as Gosling says in the first Java white paper, designed for average programmers.
Java classes and types are strict and "save" enough that it make it possible to put straight jacked to coder, but loose enough that they can make it compile. You can't do that with C++, Python because they are too loose and you can't do it with Rust or strict functional programming language because vibe programmer can't make the code compile.
It's perfect when you have software architect who does the intelligent work and code monkeys who fill the blanks.
