I'd assume that something you _can_ use is "better" than something you
_can't_.  The likelihood of using PL/X and OOPL/X (which, during my years at
IBM, I certainly considered to be _better_ than C/C++).

Unless, of course, you subscribe to Spock's observation to Stonn:  "After a
time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as
wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true."
