while I was at it I classified all other languages . . .

Gets my vote.

I had to look up "ornery" - can I suggest replacing it with "cantankerous"?

I copied your revision to the wiki http://openeuphoria.org/wiki/view/compare_languages.wc

What OOP has is:

  • dot notation
  • identifiers that replace numerical sequence indexing

How practical would it be to add just these items to a language?

The rest of the OOP stuff is just more work and details that slow down the language. As you develop a program in an OOP language you can't help but feel clever. But, I have serious trouble decoding someone else's OOP code (or code written a long time ago).
