Why does everyone insist on polluting the Objective-C language so much? None of what anyone has asked for in this thread or the similar thread on Omni-Dev a while back would actually add power to the language or any other meaningful qualities.

The problem is that people want Obj-C to be C++. I don't understand this issue and I think that you would realize that none of what you are referring to is needed if everyone decided to learn Obj-C paradigms instead of trying to shoe-horn C++ paradigms into it. If you want something ugly to code in that badly, use Obj-C++.

Sorry, I just felt the need to state my views on this since this issue keeps coming up,

Agreed 100%. Keep Objective C small, simple, and powerful.
