In addition to that paper, I raged against COBOL for a long time.
It wasn't until on my first consulting gig writing RPG III for a year, that the IBM guy installed COBOL on the system 34, and Presto COBOL wasn't all that bad.
For its time it was better than alternatives. After a while, not so much.
