And the opinion of other experts in the field - such as the ones I mentioned before.

Your implementation violates some of the basic reasons for even having OO! And
no, I don't believe MY way is the only way. But I believe the experts in the
field know a hell of a lot more about it than you do.

I suspect you've had no real-world OO experience. Large, complex projects OO is
designed to make easier. All of your experience is probably simple PHP pages
you do yourself with no collaboration.

Your attitude would never survive in a the large scale projects I've been
involved in (100+ programmers, 2 years+ time). But then it wouldn't survive the
smaller projects I've been involved in, either - (i.e. three programmers for two
months).
