By "how OO is normally implemented" I meant having methods that act on 
data, which is exactly what happens within a class. I admit that the 
max() example was unfortunate.

The problem is where encapsulation stops. If you have a class C 
containing data D and methods M that act on those data:

C:
    D
    M(D)

within C you have the same problem: a procedural model.

This is what happens in many OO languages and it's accepted as normal.

It can also be seen as one of the many reasons a class' responsibility 
should be very limited.

I wish we were able to define "domain" types just as with databases: if 
you need a 'Money' type, you create a type based on a more primitive 
type (BCD decimal with 15 digits, of which 4 decimal, for example). At 
that point, you can declare columns of that type. The 'Money' type would 
not *contain* a BCD decimal, it would actually *be* a BCD decimal, with 
its own validation rules. In Java, instead, you'd only have a Money 
class wrapping around a BigDecimal, and handle the BigDecimal inside, 
with a procedural approach.

But I am rambling now :)
