Sebastian, having structured code (not to mention ‘correctly’ formatted) often brings little value to the business 
The thing with multiple output parameters is, for me at least, a clear indication your UDF is probably doing more than it should… mind you I’m perfectly ok with the old Java way, that object can be a generic collection or maybe just a ’structured’ object like json object/array. No one said you should not use functions though, albeit much of what you name as advantages over procedures could pretty much be fixed by PSC at least for internal procedures… external procedures, those ran in super (including functions) can be excused 
Using routines with multiple parameters might become a pain later on, changing the signature of the routine is not always an easy task… guess a trip to the dark side (javascript) may break any strongly type developer
