I agree; there's a difference. There is always a semantic gap between design
and implementation in a particular language. Better languages, IMO, are those
where that gap is uniformly narrow. For Ada, I think the gap is quite wide
in places (eg. polymorphic singletons) and narrow in others (eg. low-level
mapping).
