Wow. That's how one should pitch a new programming language to programmers. >Yeah, we still count in KB. Sadly, no one cares about such things nowadays.

  I care. Demomakers care. Serious compiler and interpreter writers care. Embedded systems developers who have to write for microcontrollers based on 8051 architecture care. Even the 6502 and Z80 may still be in production in some capacity and their buyers care. Maybe web developers don't care, but nobody really cares that web developers don't care. /s

    Most web developers probably don't, but neither do most native application developers. In any area there's a subset that cares a lot [1] but for most apps getting the business model right is more effective than squeezing out a few kb.

      Doing something is often more important than doing it well.
