None of these is a show stopper, they can all be addressed and need

breath for symbol based refactoring, and probably wouldn't really
trust it either.
So are you suggesting that theoretically none of the quality of Obj-C
would pose problem for a full re-factoring tool to be developed?
I am not "suggesting" anything "theoretically". I have
incontrovertible *practical proof* that the problems of dynamic
typing do not prevent practical refactoring tools from being written,
as the first and still foremost refactoring tool is the Refactoring
Browser created for Smalltalk.
