I think this is becuase :

1. Ada, in general, is not as well known as C++ and Java.
2. Ada OO model is different from the common one used by almost every other
   OO language out there, where the 'class' construct is used. This makes 
   the Ada OO model harder for most other programmers to understand and use.

Fred.
