Sure, there are lots of coders, and many of them aren't even good coders. Yet
they are considered, and encouraged to consider themselves, qualified to design
software and choose the language to implement software (even though they often
only know a single language). The construction workers are designing the bridges
and choosing the materials to build them with.
The advantage of Ada is that it is not a coder's language. Those who dislike it
have identified themselves as coders, and can be dealt with appropriately.
