Does <> for generics fit into Pascal? Well, we use [] for array indexing, and () for
parameter passing to procedures/functions/methods. So why not use <> for passing parameters

You got a point here, but the "where T is Foo" stuff is crap then, don't you
agree?
TGType<T: TBaseType> = class(...) ... end;
is better then, when compared to your parameter example.
I indeed don't like the "where T is foo" of Chrome :) So you are totally right,
TGType<T : TBaseType> is a lot better and a lot more consistent (with e.g. function
parameter syntaxis).
