No, it wasn't.
Yes it was. I got that exact pitch.

Are you calling the person who has maintained QtCore for the last 10+ years, who has worked directly first under Trolltech and then Nokia, who has been the release manager for a number of Qt releases (just before 4.7, which publicly introduced Qt Declarative) a liar?

It was supposed to replace the
problem prone XML based UI files and buggy designer of the day. At that
time the designer was notorious for corrupting UI files forcing one to
open them with a different editor to fix. Having a plain text "language"
that was easy to code and would pre-compile to widget code was a great
selling point.

"Notorious" is hearsay and unwarranted.
