On the other hand, I've never heard of anyone using their ObjC code from iOS app for Android one (by transpiling to Java or building ObjC code as a native library) or vice versa, so I guess this point is probably mostly moot. Except for the rant comes from a GNUstep developer, where ObjC is a language of choice, too (and Swift is supposedly unavailable, at least it's the case at the moment).
