I'm not sure where this conversation is going. :) I think I resonate/agree with your entire upper part. At least, I find myself nodding my head a lot.

For the criticism of age of static analysis tool. This criticism doesn't make sense. I could make the same criticism for a 26ish+ year old and insanely complicated language toolchain (Haskel). And that is if I just pick the popular one. I could go with your example, Ada, for a 36+ year old option.

If the criticism is simply due to the proprietary nature. That cuts against much of your upper argument. The lack of money in the field is a large part of the problem.
