Oh, and virtual-by-default... completely unacceptable for a systems language. most functions are NOT virtual, and finding the false-virtuals while optimising will be extremely tedious and time consuming. Worse, if libraries contain false virtuals, there's good chance I may not be able to use said library on certain architectures (PPC, ARM in particular). Terrible decision... completely contrary to modern hardware design and trends. Why invent a 'new' language for 10 year old hardware?
If you don't need virtual functions don't use classes.
