OO systems have much more complex built-in lookup rules. One could be
bold and say that they effectively hide some module arguments and
module qualifications. That doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad idea,
but one has to ask whether the increase in language complexity is
justified by reduced application complexity.

Would you be surprised if the answer were *yes*?

Ditto. This Wikipedia entry comes to mind:
