I always thought different paradigms suited different problem domains rather than different people.

I'm not a software engineer by trade, but just for example, I've recently been mucking around making my own videogames and the object-oriented paradigm using the components pattern seems like a very natural way to conceptualise a videogame. E.g. Objects in the game (NPCs, environment) start as a basic object and are given specific behaviours by adding components.

Alternatively, I sometimes have to write R code for data analysis and in that case the style of using pipe operators to chain lots of functions together is perfect for readability and for reasoning about the code.
