Go annihilated both Java/C# and became the cloud native language 
without the OOP features

Rust is becoming the system language of choice without the OOP 
features

Zig is making a dent without the OOP features

The more OOP you put in a language, the worst it becomes

C# is adding more functional and low features because OOP 
features doesn't cut it

OOP is nice only when kept very simple and minimal
