Well, as noted by the top comment in this thread, many of the benefits of Objective-C that he's talking about are really attributable to Cocoa, not the Objective-C language itself. My main point is that, even if the quoted statement in the parent post to my original comment was technically false, the idea was essentially true. The biggest reason for using Objective-C at this point is for a type of project that can only be done on Apple's hardware and OS, not on Linux.
