The ignorance of Ada is frustrating but certainly a lot of the newer
 languages are avoiding atleast inheritance (Go, Rust, Odin and Zig).
 Personally I have only used any OOP features in Dart and Ada. In Dart I
 hate the seemingly excessive boiler plate. In Ada I rarely use tagged types
 as they are incompatible with sized record representation which I love
 (perhaps that has changed recently but I don't think so). I therefore know
 little about OOP and I haven't liked inheritance when I have used it. I
 also actually found myself disagreeing with Grady Booch objects are a
 better way diagrams in his Ada books to be honest though. So the point
 about OOP being incompatible with systems thinking might stand.
