The main problem with that is that Ada was not finalized until 1985.
Hoare's comments were made about a very preliminary version of the
language. Not only did Ada get 5 more years of development after that,
but it then got a major revision in 1995. So that lecture isn't at all
about the language we today know as Ada.
