It’s not about objects as much as record inheritance (which as I was told will
not be happening). I don’t see why Pascal got left out of this one particular
thing but since we’ve always had objects it only makes sense to keep them up to
date. Not sure why there would be any resistance to this. Making a mode switch
for “advanced objects” seems sensible enough to me (unless you want to make a
whole new keyworld like “struct” or something).
