FPC uses 2 keywords for generics: "generic" for generic definition block, and "specialize" for generic type implementation. I think the "generic" keyword is quite redundant

I think it is useful, because it allows future language extensions to also use the <> syntax without conflicting with generics (e.g., the Objective Pascal draft syntax also makes use of angle brackets for a couple of things).
