Of course, but OOP is typically about putting methods on classes, inheritance of behaviour etc.

You’re referring to one subtype of OOP. That may be what most people mean when they say OOP, but that doesn’t make it correct. Object-oriented programming is programming with objects, which does not require inheritance or classes.

With such a broad definition you could call even Haskell an oop language

So you’re arguing that “Object oriented” shouldn’t apply to languages that are oriented around objects?
