I didn't say I enjoyed ObjC. That's not really how I choose my tools. It's a job. The choice is utilitarian.

I seem to recall enjoying Pascal somewhat, though that was a very long time ago.

I definitely recall not enjoying Lisp. Not at all. Yuck.

If Swift helps you, that's great. I'm just writing about my experience. For me, it doesn't help. I'm certainly not deliberately avoiding a tool that would help me. I do write my share of bugs, but I rarely write the type of bugs that the Swift compiler would catch, and I never ship them. YMMV
I'm not intending to offer advice of any kind to others. I'm not much for giving or taking advice. And like I suggested, if I needed to find a job, then I'd probably have to go all-in on Swift. My goal, though, is to never get another job for the rest of my life. ;-)
