Tres drole'!
Kinda like second story men complaining about the proliferation of anti-pick locksets and how it infringes their right to pick locks, while saying nothing about their activites once the locks are picked.
They "were concerned about their ability to write software", were they?
How touching.
It reminds me of the plight of women who are "were concerned about their ability to exercize their 'right to choose.'"
Divorce the word from its context, and it sounds so bloody innocent, doesn't it.
