Jeffrey P Shell discusses Jim Coplien's piece on "Putting the Object back into [OOD]" (OOP). Hierarchy has become an important abstraction tool in many design paradigms. Used effectively, it brings organizational power. Used to shed essential complexity, it is evil. In most Object Oriented design, most abstraction is evil. It is an excuse to ignore things we don't want to deal with even though we should. (Discusses UseCase-s and [CrcCard]-s as teaching tools.) (Is this Prototype Based programming?)
