That wasn't what was said. What was said was "causing US 
problems". I.e. on the whole, the lack of class-level privacy 
does not appear to be causing widespread problems, which implies 
that it's simply lower on the list of feature requests for most 
people.

Let me put it another way.
I'm not against class private. I'm not against string 
interpolation.
I don't care about class private. I don't care about string 
interpolation.
One will soon be in the language, and one will not.

I can only assume lack of string interpolation was causing pain 
to more users, than a lack of class private, therefore it got 
implemented first.
