Just to play Devil's Advocate here, the same argument can be alledged against
using pointers, or most APIs, or service programs with binding directories, or
...  (name your favorite new RPG IV feature here).

Yet you don't advocate coding to the least common denominator if they don't
understand these concepts.  You want them to get with the program, so to speak,
and learn how to make use of what the language offers.

Is there irony in the disparity?
