While a remaining point would not look so much nice in a rational :
the name trouble. OK, it's nice the language hides by default and it's
not a trouble because one may show if he/she want. That said, in Ada,
everything must have a name ( ;) ) and I do not see a good rational
which could give any good reason about the fact that “ if you want to
make it visible, you must trick the name ”, moreover that good naming
is an important part of Ada programs.

The point is then not about the possibility to hide or the possibility
to show (that is solved), and rather about the required trick on the
name.

I leave this one point to interested peoples, without me (because I
know it is a language fact and nothing could be able to change this).
