I really don't understand why Pascal "should" include C-style stuff.
PASCAL IS DIFFERENT LANGUAGE THAN C. STOP.
I fully agree with all you said but Borland created these Pascal
"extensions" and now we cannot go back (as others say) because we need
compatibility with Delphi programs and an "easier" (which I doubt)
convertion of C header files. So noone is willing to turn back the clock
and remove these illogical extensions. Sadly we now have no longer a
clean language in the spirit of Pascal but a mix of Pascal and C and we
will have to live with it forever.
