You can use similar logic to declare English to be an example of Chinese. They both have syllables. They both assemble syllables into words that convey meaning. They both use grammars to form relationships between those words. Thus, they must be the same. It is fallacious logic. Some similarities do not make things the same. Data abstraction is also its own topic that is able to stand independently from OOP. What the kernel does is data abstraction, not OOP. What you are seeing in the kernel are the abstract data types of data abstraction. |

I know ADT and OOP are different concepts, in another answer I wrote what I think the base differences are. But they are related, and in the definitions I am familiar with, ADTs are a base concept for OOP. And OOP can be an implementation for ADTs.
If you don't think the implementations I provide are enough to apply to the kernel, can maybe provide your own definition according to which we can evaluate this, because I feel like we are beating around the bush. But please not something that says this can only be happening in an OOP language, to these I would plainly disagree with, because OOP is a paradigm and not a property of a language.
