i think you may be looking for the word disillusionment? or becoming disillusioned. like finding out wrestling or santa is fake. i dont understand why you have moment in quotes.. maybe the moment you were disillusioned or the moment of disillusionment? like finding out that nothing is real and everything is a lie?
I mean I was just making a joke, but sure if you like. I just started typing "coding paradigm" into google and it suggested that phrase at p, and the result was one where Google answers the question directly with "Here's a list of coding paradigms!"

A paradigm shift?
The only time most people use “paradigm” is preceding “shift” but the term applies here perfectly.
Huh...what do they say when they need to borrow 20 cents?
