Well, I've only been doing professional SW development since 1975, and 
only using Ada since 1984, so no doubt you're right.

A controlled type is a type derived from Ada.Finalization.Controlled or 
Ada.Finalization.Limited_Controlled. There is no way for a routine to be 
a controlled type.

What Get_Line does is implementation dependent. The OP was not speaking 
of a specific implementation, so it's impossible to say anything about 
what Get_Line does beyond what is specified in the ARM.

A protected operation is not a controlled object.

Perhaps you should take your own advice.
