Scala is nice, but I fear it's getting too complicated. "A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." I can't really tell what features should be removed, but maybe Scala should be viewed as a research language, and not so much as a language for the masses?

I'm confused by this statement in the article:
> Now assume you want to place a variable, planted, and a method, showFruit, directly into package gardening.But in the subsequent examples, the variable planted and method showFruit seem to be in the package gardening.fruits, not directly in gardening.
