Speaking of the core team, you may be right. And speaking about people
writing cross plattform programm it presumably is a wise decision to
translate things to pascal. Once done it reduces efforts of updating
external libs to newer versions, oddities when compiling for multiple
platforms, etc.

But besides that I'm not hesitating to use external libraries to get
things done. I had some USB access code from a third party and no time
to translate before the release, so it was a bliss to compile some cut
out C functions into objects and link them to the pascal program. Works,
still in use.
