I agree. The issue is not "I do or do not want $instance->method() in my code" but rather "Do I have state to encapsulate?"

I'm a full time perl programmer and often run into people from the perl community who think OO is just a calling convention or a style instead of a tool with a specific purpose. It's very frustrating. The fact that Perl's native OO support is incomplete and obtuse just makes it worse. This module follows that pattern of thought. Using it would just add arbitrary and unnecessary complexity to a project.
