Thomas, Mike, as much as I'm amused by this debate, can we drop this here? It's getting unproductive, really.
I confess I am amused too, which is why I indulge myself. It's a bit as if I were to show up at a programming conference and say something like "You know, that C++ stuff is very complicated -- it requires a knowledge of object-oriented-programming principles, you know."
If I were really self-important, I'd repeat this C++ pronunciamento two or three times, ideally in front of a large group.

To be more precise, it's as if you showed up to a programming conference and said that to someone who had just dismissed OOP principles as unimportant.
