[Doc/Dev]: style guide claims "object oriented" is verboten.  #21817

Problem

The style guide claims that we should call the object-oriented paradigm the "object oriented programming" paradigm, or "style". a) this is not done in the docs (everywhere I can find it is "object oriented" <approach/style/etc> or better: "object-oriented" <approach/style/etc> ). b) its clunky and redundant to add "programming" to the phrase.

Suggested improvement

I think almost always this should be "object-oriented style" or "OO style". The hyphen is preferred as this is a compound adjective.
