>Seriously, the whole point of what it does and zero to do with OOP and everything to do with readability. That's the issue.

Having consitant (being OOP all the way through) and classified (putting certain functions on certain objects) functions available is the issue I'm concerned with. If I new where my fucntion existed (on the printers object, or memory object maybe?) I could use IntelliSense to easily find it. Much easier than looking up a constant. So it speeds the learning curve, and increases productivy and readability as well.
