How could Green team & Jean Ichbiah or Ada9X or some future Ada 2025-or-the= reabouts go further than current Ada in reducing coupling? One potential w= ay that emerged long after Green team & HOLWG's efforts in the 1970s concei= vably might be if HOLWG-operating-in-a-different-decade had mandated AOP as= pects (as separation of concerns to the programmer) and requirements for we= avers (as how the separation of concerns as axes are to intersect in a well= -formed system). And the leadership of the C++ community never has embraced AOP aspect weavi= ng. AOP is one of the few paradigms that C++ has not attempted (obtusely) = to mimic. Other than AOP, are there other potential ways beyond Ada's current capabil= ities that reducing coupling might be achieved? > At this=20 > point, it appears that you are mainly trolling, I concur with that.
