I dislike the NextStep libraries (and all of Apple's subsequent creations) far more than Objective-C itself. The completely unnecessary verboseness is what drives me up the wall.
If the libraries were designed more like C++'s (say what you will about STL, but at least set<> is called set<>), I'd probably have no issues whatsoever.
