Quite a lot of assumptions and conjecture about how things would have turned out… Maybe better to frame as “it could have” or “what if”? And even then, who knows. It’s not like everything SmallTalk related is a panacea, it’s unclear how a text file and data structures have meaningful and usable bi-directional interchanges, or that the GUI of Suns had much sway in what was going on in the rest of the computing world which probably had seen few of these miraculous hypothetical SmallTalk systems running at huge pricing for enterprises.
