I agree it is an excellent language from an ergnomics point of view.

One problem I've found for proprietary programs is that C# stored basically your whole source code in the executable. I don't just mean it's easy to disassemble... it's really retained the source code, or at least a lot of metadata. Even the original local variable names are there! I wonder if anyone has any ideas to work around this?

The term you're looking for is obfuscation. This seems like a good roundup: https://github.com/NotPrab/.NET-Obfuscator
