True enough. The thing is, most developers know and will probably still use Objective-C for quite a while to come. I haven't used the Swift language yet, but I don't see how it will help avoid accessibility problems. It may offer slightly faster coding, but that is about it. I'll let you all know if my opinion changes as I get more into Swift, which won't be until Xcode6 comes out.
