If we are talking past each other, he's trying to say "Perl is more readable" or "Perl requires less structure", why is his conclusion "Hence the charge: Java is Object Oriented Only."? I was challenging the four claims that Java is only OO, and his conclusion indicates he was still on subject.

If he's no longer on that subject, he's trying to show that Perl is more readable and/or that Perl requires less structure. I'm not interested in that because I agree with those propositions. I'm interested in knowing why people claim Java is only OO.

Java has probably been marketed as an exclusively OO language. It was surely designed to be. But that doesn't mean one can't do procedural programming in Java as easily as OO programming in Java.
