I used Ada in my first years at Uni and I can honestly say that I like it. I've never had the use for it's safety critical abilities (still being an undergraduate) but I did enjoy programming in it. I certainly didn't have any problems with it being so strict.
Wish Ada was still part of my course these days, but I guess there are important skills in learning Java...oh well!
You are mistaken to think that the finger print identification system doesn't make errors. The example above is only one of many incidences of this kind of thing.
