Now you say four false things (not controversial, actually
FALSE):
Garbage collection is inefficient
Eiffel is front end for C++
Programmer has to know C++ to use Eiffel
Eiffel programmer has to call C++ for anything useful like OS calls
which makes us think YOU are a troll. Please, if you have some
sensible questions to ask, about Eiffel and other technologies,
don't spoil it by making assertions from a position of ignorance.
