I think a lot if the paradigm frame comes from programming being still relatively new (although that's becoming a less and less viable meme). We're still very "one true way" in how we talk about software design.

Personally, I'd love to see us talking more in terms of problems/solutions.

To give an example. State leads to complexity and bugs, and it can be minimized by preferring pure functions where possible. That's a good principle that can be learnt from without embracing everything functional and rejecting everything that involves objects.
