Black and white extremist views.

Sometimes inheritance is extremely useful. Sometimes it's harmful. Sometimes it's not the best but the most practical nontheless.

Language concepts are tools. These people with extreme black and white views live under the delusion that there can be some "Perfect Language which will cause the program to never develove/get technical debt TM".

Pure delusion.

Real life is an approximation where you do what is best in practice, not in some delusional daydream of perfection which breaks the moment you try and bring it to reality.
