Apparently, Pascal has been conceived as a teaching tool, and as such, the Wirth's variety lacks much of the real-world's requirements. Note, how far Borland went in whipping up extensions and modifications until it started to be usable at all. But that's still PC-oriented. The embedded word expects something different - see language extensions, irregularities, nonstandard approaches (e.g. the OCG discussed now in a parallel thread - why not?)).
