After 25 years you should have stopped clinging to SRP by now.

It's a place to start ... not dogma.

With statements like that you are just feeding into the author's argument.

The "point" isn't "to win", the point is to find the best argument ...

Clinging is a word you picked. My word is working. The code style employed everyday I write it, works perfectly. More importantly it's maintainable even years later. Proof? Yes, I have code running world wide every day. I use SRP and Open Closed exclusively. As well as Compositional techniques. If it ain't broke don't fix it right?

BTW the video is ridiculous to me.
