One obvious advantage to OOP is avoiding namespace clutter. Splitting up large classes can still require exporting symbols, and can still end up with namespace collisions on the exports.
E::P helps on both accounts with simple symbol export (via Symbol) and an option for adding a dispatcher to the included classes. The dispatch method looks like $thingy->yourname( op => args ) and simply strips off the op, and re-dispatching it via __PACKAGE__->can( $op ). The dispatcher provides a namespace for its op's, which can then be more mnemonic.
