Another language that is derived from the ideas of Objective-C (in
the sense that it tried to improve on them and not restrict them like
that automated coffee pot project IMHO) was Tom <http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOM_(object-oriented_programming_language%
29>. Unfortunately it is a dead language, but if you are trying to
create a new language it may be useful to take a look at the ideas
behind it (I know the developer personally so I can help off-list if
you need more info).

I think my question boils down to this: I'm trying to understand
why Obj-C was designed the way it was. It may be simply a matter of
historical accident. At the time Obj-C was created, java wasn't
around.
