"C#'s principal designer and lead architect at Microsoft is Anders Hejlsberg. His previous experience in programming language and framework design (Visual J++, Borland Delphi, Turbo Pascal) can be readily seen in the syntax of the C# language, as well as throughout the Common Language Runtime (CLR) core. In interviews and technical papers he has stated ***flaws*** in most major programming languages, C++, Java, Delphi, Smalltalk, drove the fundamentals of the CLR, which, in turn, drove the design of the C# programming language itself."
Anders Hejlsberg is one of the most respected software engineers in the world, who has proven himself many times. Forgive me if I don't have the same respect for your uninformed gibberish.
I think you might be misinterpreting that quotation. I read it as saying that problems perceived in the older languages informed CLR and C# in the sense that an understanding of those flaws and shortcomings allowed them to be avoided or ameliorated in the newer design. I know very little about CLR and C# nor have I ever heard of Anders Hejlsberg, for what it's worth.
