I've worked with counterexamples to all of these - not that I'd dispute the general thrust much. For asic I would have guessed the USA leaned to verilog a tad. And Australia is VHDL. (all .001% of the world market).. Perhaps the key - as you observe - is to emphasize translator tools to reduce the wastage wherever possible? john
