For me the most clear example (in English and other languages that borrowed from Latin) is "to move" and "mobile".

I don't have intentions to justify an injustice. I'm saying why should we try to make it even harder for a disadvantaged group? It does not help a single German man if women also have to comply to this law. Fixing women's rights on the other hand gives everybody the benefit of living in a society that is more fair. For me, that's a valuable goal.

What's a reason that is politically and not against one's conscience? I assumed that one's political beliefs would also manifest in conscience.

The cold war has been over for a very long time. The whole process was reformed in 1984 by removing the mandatory oral hearing. Sources say that acceptance rate was above 90% after 1995. That's not good enough (should be 100%), but not terrible either.

Is this based on your experience or is it just an assumption? I only have anecdotes, but it does not reflect your claims, rather the exact opposite. A lot of the boilerplate code doesn’t need to be type annotated, but annotating the main business logic doesn’t take more time and is not more complicated, but instead type annotations help write code that is more clear, more obvious, and it adds some kind of documentation.

But then Ruby only goes half way, not unlike the "watered-down form" in your term. Why is `#times` a method of Integer, but `#if` (or `#ifTrue`) not a method of booleans like in Smalltalk? Ruby does the same cherry picking from Smalltalk like everybody else, just different cherries. When looking at Ruby, it feels like the simple examples are all nice and clean but then the weird details start to appear and the language feels more hacky than others (like Ned Flander's house in Simpsons S08E08).

One argument that I’m missing in the article is that with an enumerated, states are mutually exclusive, while withseveral booleans, there could be some limbo state of several bool columns with value true, e.g. is_guest and is_admin, which is an invalid state.
