I respectfully disagree, strongly.

Some OO languages support greater degrees of introspection and dynamic type 
checking than others.  Some encourage delegation,  dynamic binding and 
dispatch, whether classes are part of the object system, whether the class of 
classes can be subclassed, etc., these differences are really fundamental 
things.

One thing I appreciate about Tcl is that I can choose which type of OO suits my 
needs, or none at all (sometimes an OO system gets in the way of a clean 
solution). 

But, in summary, the main difference in OO systems is the degree to which they 
support dynamic "stuff" and whether they support delegation.
