Even when the introduction of Ada is seen without its background
of a few hundred PLs used and payed for by just one organization,
there is something to be learned about inventing PLs:
Always consider the reactions of the people involved,
mathematically. Not just technicalities.
The number of PLs used today seems smaller than that reported for 1979.
For whatever reasons. But the market has become vendor-driven again!
Therefore, if things go back to a plethora of offerings, and someone
wishes to do something about it like supplanting the multitude with
just a few specimen,maybe there will be an opportunity, in the future,
to make the same mistakes again: the clever people who know Ada's history
will then do the catering and sell oil for the flames in the wars of pride.
