Agree, classes are not simple structures, they carry internal mutable state and hidden behaviours.
Compounding mutable objects creates a huge brittled context were system state at any given point in time is untraceable by a normal human brain except in simplistic systems. Now you could create un mutable objects but then why bother creating classes with hidden behaviours if there is no hidden state ? Please explain then the advantage of using classes in this context versus name spaces to delimit concerns with high order functions ? How can you stick to both things at the same time ?
