I totally agree that in many times classes become very difficult to evolve. As you grow smarter about how you want to run your application, all of your previous decisions about the code-data packaging (classes) become sort of a deadlock and would require huge efforts to re-factor. stateless code is always easier to test, manage and to scale.

Sounds like a good restatement of "do the simplest thing that could possibly work." “There should be no need to wrap it in myriad wrappers like functions, classes, packages etc if its not necessary.”

The simplest unit of a program is a line of instruction, and we should be able to just write that statement and make the program execute. There should be no need to wrap it in myriad wrappers like functions, classes, packages etc if its not necessary. Exactly my thoughts!
