OK, let me put it this way:
Such pedantic considerations are totally misplaced. Java, AWT and Swing
are great programming tools. Cocoa is great too. Java has millions of
developers. Cocoa has only a few. We don't need such sarcasms. We need
open-minded people, capable to understand each other's economic models.
Generally speaking, sarcasms don't lead to productivity. They're
contrary to positive thinking. The pedantic behavior of yours is, alas,
specific to mac people, and I deeply deplore it.
