It's also worth mentioning that Ada and SPARK are very easy to pick up these days. There's Cargo-like tool Alire [1], official VSCode plugin [2] and Open VSX plugin [3], Ada Language Server [4], Emacs Ada mode [5] and GNAT Studio [6]. With Alire one can easily install GNAT FSF builds (meaning GPL with linking exception) and SPARK tools. All libre software.

Not to mention Ada being really versatile and well thought out language. And there's upcoming Ada 2022 standard [7].
