That sounds like a failure of a language to me. When you have to create long ugly hacks to work around the language's limitations, then it's not working for you but against you. I've been writing in Objective-C ever since abandoning Swift 2 and so far I've only really ever heard people say they're having this or that major difficulty with Swift, so it makes me feel like it was the right thing to do to avoid getting heavily invested in Swift.
