I think objective discussions of C are appropriate for
comp.lang.c.  Your description is not objective.  For example,
you claim that "people don't value cleaner, more productive
syntax...".  But those are subjective criteria.  Has it truly
never occurred to you that many other people just don't consider
your syntax significantly cleaner, or more productive?

I'm sure your language is very nice.  I recall looking at it at
one point and thinking it was fine, though I saw nothing
particularly special about it that would motivate me to want to
give up the considerable network advantages of using a more
common language.

You really think that's just sour grapes?  That everyone else is
just, what...mad at you because they feel the need to defend C's
honor or something?  C isn't a member of my family.  You're not
insulting my ancestry by pointing out flaws in it.  I'm not
going to get personally upset about its imperfections.

Perhaps people dismiss what you say because, despite your
self-aggrandizing words, you've shown that you don't actually
know C very well, and that you either do not care about, or
misunderstand, basic aspects of the language.  By your own
admission you ignore in the standards documents.  It is hard to
take the criticism of someone who doesn't understand what they
are criticizing very seriously, and subjectivity aside, relative
statements about the superiority of your language with respect
to a language you yourself don't know very well are similarly
difficult to take seriously.

Yes, that's right.

For someone who claims to want to discuss C objectively, you
sure do make a lot of subjective statements.
