I note that the author very subtly grasped the future of the UML language, which in the transition from the version 1\ to 2\ shifted the focus from humans to machines, since the maintainers of the language had the idea of writing a description in UML and then generating code from there. This led to a decline in the popularity of the UML language, as people almost stopped using it to communicate with each other, but they did not start using it to tell machines how to generate code in programming languages:)
