if you analyze why the "engulfing" occurs, you will see that your language lacks the raw power of iterative loop,pointers and gotos, adding either layers of object cruft or functional cruft to express "elegant" programs, filled with bloated, inefficient code that is far removed from the hardware it runs on. Such abstraction relies on every layer being as building block to express the next layer, making the whole house of cards have a rotten foundation, patched with garbage collection and safety checks to ensure the program is correct at every point it run.
