in reply to More discipline or more freedom - in the context of OO

It seems to me that this is more of a "social engineering" decision: if i am working with a handful of Perl wizards, to hell with bondage and discipline. But if i am working with a lot of people with varying programming backgrounds then maybe we need something to keep us in line - something to keep us coding in a similar fashion, "seatbelts" to prevent us from crossing lines and breaking API's.

Me? I like Perl's OO the best for what i do ... but when it comes to "we", maybe it is better to have stricter bondage and discipline to keep the weak links in line. Of course, i'd rather continue to work with Perl wizards. ;)
