Hmm... I have serious doubt the anonymous methods (actually referenced

If anything they are more and more used across the majority of the

Extremely easy.
We made the decision after discovering how much easier the code is to maintain
and grow. We have sped up our development by a factor of more than 3 times, and
we have reduced maintenance issues by approximately 6 times.
As I said, the future will show who was on the right track

This is a valid point.
The only downside is that the object will every time do a deep copy

Adding ref. counting to objects is probably equivalent of one

100% agree, although although smart pointers also can already be implemented in
Delphi with anonymous methods.
I wanted to mention the possibility actually in my post.
For good smart pointer however we also will need implicit casting, operator
overloading and few other features, but it surely is
