Probably a major factor, yes.
One good thing of Ada is that she has grown well so far.
But frankly I hope she stops growing now.
It's time for a new language, with all these lessons learnt.
FORTRAN should have stopped growing long time ago.
C++ should never had start growing at all.
Meanwhile good programmers/engineers/managers just switch to Ada and forget the FORTRAN and C++ monstruosities.
