In 2000, when ISO/IEC 8652:1995 was 5 years old, every compiler vendor had a 
compiler for it.

In 2012, when ISO/IEC 8652:2007 was 5 years old, about half of the comiler 
vendors had a compiler for it.

in 2017, when ISO/IEC 8652:2012 was 5 years old, one compiler vendor had a 
compiler for it.

Can we extrapolate and conclude that when Ada 2X is five years old, there will 
be no compiler vendors with a compiler for it?
