Is this arguing that developers shy away from the forced OOP, and Patterns, instead relying on simple to read, step by step, functions?

One of my biggest gripe about OO programming was that you had no idea what the other components were doing unless you investigated each component directly. Sometimes the dependencies and the chain would get so large and complicated, you'd spend more time figuring out how to wrap your head around the whole thing than doing things that result in direct business benefit.

But every interview you go to will tell you otherwise, inflating technical debt is a great thing to keep managers keep their job and for sales team to boast about six digit LOC = Obviously state of the art.
