Mar 8, 2019 at 15:44 comment added ivan_pozdeev Ah, the good old "in a contradictory axiomatic, it's possible to prove anything". Since there are no hard truths and lies IRL, any dogmas will have to include statements that state opposite things i.e. be contradictory.
Mar 7, 2019 at 20:08 comment added Beefster For a more pragmatic variation on this idea, It's simply that it's much easier to reason about local state than instance or global state. Well-defined and tightly-contained mutability and side effects rarely lead to issues. For instance, many sort functions operate in-place via side effect, but this is easy to reason about in a local scope.
