"Annoying to write" was never an issue in Ada, where we favor ease of
reading over ease of writing. If your Nested component represents a
logical entity of your problem domain, it deserves a name (i.e. a type).
And what could you do with this component? Without a type name, no
subprogram could operate on it.

There are lots of things you can do in C and not in Ada (shooting
yourself in the foot comes to mind).
