This is a pro of Pascal then :)

I was also looking for the pros of Pascal in contrast to what we've come to expect of languages while skimming the article.

Lazarus on ubuntu and windows is usable, i'm still struggling with macOS and there is legends and lore of ios/android support. It even seems to support qt, but I have not went there yet.

Something else to mention about lazarus is you can hot compile the ide too add in components, fix issues; While using lazarus. It takes a couple of minutes to recompile and there a fail safe cli method to restore. But rather amazing if you wonder how long it takes to compile visual studio professional or qt.
