If you were using a complete code generator (from executable UML, in
some way, for example) this is true. But in that case Ada would be a
kind of low-level language the developers wouldn't normally look at.

If the CG is producing a framework that the developers have to slot
code into, it matters a lot that the code they've written and tested
isn't invalidated by some minor model change.
