For me, right now, the #1 annoyance -- which could easily become a deal-breaker -- is that Ada requires manual memory management.  For a
language that qualify itself as safe, this is contradictory (outside
embedded development).  Other modern languages either offer garbage
collection, or smart pointers in the standard library.
