Or more realistically, most programmers will continue to be oblivious, and
we'll enjoy another eternity of the same old problem where many 3rd party
libraries written on a PC are unusable on resource-limited machines, and
people like me will waste innumerable more hours re-inventing wheels
in-house, because the programmer of a closed-source library either didn't
know, or didn't give a shit.

None of it would be a problem if he just had to type virtual when he meant
it... the action would even assist in invoking conscious thought about
whether that's actually what he wants to do, or if there's a better design.
