It would be more fair I think if you compared
Standard.Strings.Unbounded
to
std::string
C++ minus the STL, if I may put it this way, has no Ada-like or STL-like
arrays after all. (But it does have an STL.)

My understanding of Martin's comment is that you can have an Ada
compiler decide whether it thinks that pass by reference is better,
thus you only need to specify the mode, not the passing mechanism.
Is there a similar allowance for C++ compilers?
