How is that a comment on coding standards or best practices? I'm afraid the arguments against procedural code are not religious. Procedural code provides poor encapsulation and modularity. If procedural code was all that great, we wouldn't have needed to have C++, C#, Java, and Objective-C, and any number of other derivative languages. Regardless of my or your opinions, WordPress is a legacy codebase. Procedural code today is all but completely discarded.

I'd rather it be done by people who care than those that don't.
