- High-level programming language designed specifically for the Oberon System with type extension and machine-independent abstraction.
- Authors' assertion that through concentration on essentials and disciplined design, Oberon achieved commercial-grade functionality with minimal effort.
- A locally complete, self-contained creative process that creates a single center from conception to completion, in a continuous sequence.
- Key consequence: GPT's power comes from simulating something contingent.
