in reply to Short routines matter more in OO?

This is only a slightly connected to the topic, but has anyone read the recently fashonable in some circles oeuvre by Christopher Alexander "The Phenomenon of Life: The Nature of Order" ISBN 0972652914. It promisses some insight on the subject of software architecture. In particular it is said to identify 15 universal principles of design of natural things that should be present in human made architectures to be consistent.
