I would suggest that you spend time learning basic principles about language design and better understand the concept that not all languages are meant to be used in the same way and for the same purpose before you make any more postings in this thread. Then you'll understand that the above statement is completely meaningless. You very specifically *do not* want to put every possible feature into every language.
