My very next example used a subtype for indexing,
which you omitted from your reply.
It makes me wonder if people like X(X'First) because it
gives the comfort of not using literals, even though it's
basically equivalent to X[0] in C, Python, etc.

I like that Ada gives the choice of "Positive range <>" or
"Natural range <>".
