It would be extremely annoying to be forced to write all my code functionally.
But I find it even more annoying to be forced to write all my code object oriented. Looking at you, python and java.
Not sure why you're saying Python forces everything to be object oriented...?
It basically does. It pretends to court functional programming while actually being really antithetical to it in basically every way. Guido Van Rossum has vocally expressed his dislike for functional programming (though I'd argue he actually doesn't really know much about it).
