Analogy: You talk to some master chefs. You tell them that the sharp knives are dangerous; they should get rid of them. They're going to tell you to get lost. The knives are valuable to them precisely because they are sharp. Sure, an amateur like me could seriously cut himself on one. So?
I don’t think your analogy is appropriate though. My original analogy, the Swiss Army knife, conveys what I think is the core of the problem with OOP: it takes unrelated, powerful tools, and ties them together in a way that makes them unwieldy and more difficult to use.
This problem is inherent to the object itself. It ties together unrelated concepts: polymorphism, data abstraction, mutable state, inheritance, and modules. Hence the Swiss Army knife analogy.
Other languages (namely functional languages) give you all of these powerful tools but you get them separately, so they’re easier to control.
