Or, suppose...

The DoD doesn't want China to use Ada for their own military software,
because this might give them an unfair advantage.  So, they make it
seem like they're massively converting to C++.  If all goes according
to plan, the Chinese spies will ignore and dismiss Ada programs as
obsolete, while the Chinese engineers write their software with
much-reduced efficiency.

Meanwhile, the DoD quietly reuses, enhances, ports, and extends its
large body of battle-tested Ada programs for the next generation of
weapons.

Tell me about far-fetched :)
