Martin, I didn't get to the end of your email because I find that
first major part - part and parcel of why Delphi failed as a language.
 It became unviable because exception handling and blow-outs.  Which
in turn were caused by sloppy ideologies such as the standing notion
here... Which is to let the blow-out occur and move on.  Garbage
collection was the solution to this problem.
