I just have been told that Embarcadero plans to do away with the stuff fpc

And thus completely incompatible with any "String" Type ever known in
Pascal.
They also make TObject reference counted...
lol! That's ridiculous ... they will just keep changing and changing?
And expect people to rewrite their codebases every 4 years?

In theory at least, in practice it may make people stop buying new
