The point is that we consider that several features added by Embarcadero make the language less Pascal-like or more complicated for no good reason. "Advanced records" is one such example: that feature already existed, and is called "objects" or "Turbo Pascal-style objects".
A really "straight forward" comprehensive variant would be to forget all the different keywords and always us class (maybe introducing a static (create does not allocate memory) and a dynamic (heap based) variant). But as this is not at all "pascal like" this supposedly is not a good idea for a thingy called "free Pascal".
