the greatest weaknesses of the Commodore line of home
computers - the
VIC-20, Commodore 64, C128 and so forth - that their BASIC was very
primitive, had no commands for structured programming and, crucially,
no commands for sound, graphics, colour or any of the media facilities
of the underlying hardware.
BASIC 7 in the C128 corrected many of those issues. There were add-on
tools and carts that would add graphics & sound commands to the C-64 - the
most common was Simons Basic.

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
