> Now that IDEs are common, I suspect that some languages like Ada may slowly gain ground over time. There is far less need for a language to be "stupid editor" friendly.

I kind of disagree. While it seems to me that languages now tend to want to support tooling, the trend to tolerate depending on the IDE instead of improving the ergonomics of the language alone peaked sometime around the height of Java’s relative industrial popularity (I'm not saying Java is some kind of extreme examole of IDE dependence; Java itself has focussed a lot on its own ergonomics since that time.)

OTOH, I don't think Ada is so I ergonomic that, other than in a case of pathologically bad design to start with, you'd have to manually change integer ranges everywhere; I'm fairly certain that it supported type aliases for things like that and it would have been idiomatic at the height of its popularity (such as it was) to use them, so that you'd only have to make that change in one place, not everywhere.
