I assume you mean "I cannot agree" or "I disagree".

No, I meant what I said. Consider it roughly equivalent to "I agree with
that".

If you look out in the real world, then you will see that
somehow people are able to write software with lots
of assemblies without the ability to have a "nested
assembly" mechanism.

Absolutely. Many of our competitors are bumbling around with enormous
Fortran 77 codebases that have no encapsulation or high-level structure at
all.

Tolerating the same deficiencies would mean commercial suicide for us.
