"Building a "real" OS is a very large job, it takes years and years,
with large teams of people working on it, and very few companies
can committ to something like this very easily regardless of the
language used."
Building a full OS, including all utilities, compilers, etc is indeed
a very large job, but building just the kernel is not such a big job
(Linux for instance is NOT that large). So building an OS kernel
in Ada would be a reasonably practical project.
