		According to Bertrand Meyer (peut-etre il a parle a Jean?), Jean --who had been writing Simula compilers, and was thus familiar with the paradigm-- thought that dynamic binding would have been too radical for the conservative DoD, who after all were the ones commissioning the language, and so he figured they wouldn't go for it.
		According to others, Jean in fact didn't want type extension and dynamic binding, because he didn't think it was necessary.
		She told me that she disagreed with many of Ichbiah's decisions, and still thinks he was wrong.) So the moral of the story is, don't blame the gov't for putative errors in the language.

		Given the complexity of negotiating with bureaucracy at the US Department of Defense (DoD), Ada's inventor needed to be a consummate diplomat and Ichbiah combined his undoubted technical skill with a master's degree in diplomacy.
