You are confusing "local extensions" with "third party libraries".

Local extensions are things like 'Img.
Third party libraries are things like QtAda (or YAMI4, for that
matter).

That is, there is no reason to expect standard authors to define
packages for all possible language uses or all possible ways for
creating external program interfaces. For example, I don't think that
standard Ada.iPad package would make sense at all.

Well, no. Your conclusions are completely wrong.
