This is what annoyed me most about the whole Swift presentation. Swift is not in any way shape or form innovative, in terms of language features or design. It is however, another language that aims to be as productive as possible, while still being safe, like Java, C#, Rust, Go etc.

It'd be far more interesting to compare it to them (especially where they have bindings for iOS e.g. Java, C#) in terms of productivity, code maintainability, readability etc, instead of in terms of language features.
