Please give some Ada202X mock-up of precisely what by-value types and scalar classes would wisely enable that are inexpressible throughout Ada2012.  This is a two-part request:  1) explicitly, the proposed feature/syntax and 2) implicitly, the claim that no portion of Ada2012 can be utilized to accomplish that feature adequately with a different syntax (e.g., counter-claim:  another branch of this thread shows that generic enumerations sufficiently accomplish the OP's desired abstract enumerations, hence obviating the need for a 2nd syntax to accomplish the desired effect).
