They weren't killed, they moved into different business. It is the market
of compilers which was killed.

I doubt that there is a single company which earns anything from selling
compilers. Those who sell or give compilers for free refund from somewhere
else.

This model (also known from Socialism) is not sustainable, so we are
observing the number of compilers for all languages declining, not just for
Ada.
