you stopped reading too early as well, I guess:
"maybe their stated goal is not reached with this implementation of 
their idea"

and the implementation being the spec,

furthermore, "users will suffer too", I'm suffering if I have to use 
C++, with all its exceptions and special cases.

BTW, I pickpocketed the idea that if there is a choice where to put the 
complexity, you never put it with the user. "pickpocket" is strong, I've 
learned it from an analyst who was 30 years in the business, and I 
really respect the guy, basically he was always right and right on. On 
the other hand, the management did not always like what he thought :-)
