It's just so frustrating that they keep adding things that scratch no itch I've ever had as a programmer, while leaving out incredibly obvious things that would make my life easier and my code safer.

Named parameters, for instance. It's insane that function parameters still can't be specified in any order with name=value expressions. That would have saved numerous bugs over the years, but apparently I'm the only one who thinks so. When a language such as C++ is harder to use than Verilog, somebody has screwed up badly.
