If modern tires are considered reinventing the wooden wheels, sure, then reinventing wheel is the main form of making progress. But I doubt that's how people thinking about reinventing wheel, when they use that phrase to mock others of wasting energy inventing something that has already a very-well-working alternative.

So you would drive a chariot on the same places as a four wheel traction drive Jeep?

Sorry, I was saying that reinventing wheel does not apply to the invention of modern tires...

So why aren't we all using JOVIAL to develop IoT systems?

Apparently it wasn't required to reinvent any other high level language for embedded systems programming, it was already solved problem in 1960.

Why reinvent the wheel for embedded systems programming?

Idk about JOVIAL, but I certain mind too see some modern Ada out there.
