It's quite balanced choice of programming language to learn (when you already do programming). It's different enough from very mainstream languages (not so boring as learning C# after Java), but not completely alien (not Hoon, Red or Coq). It's not enough popular to be used by copy-paste coders in bodyshops however not obscure and often considered "mainstream". It's created by academy (and not by website designers) but practical enough. It's old enough to not treat it as hype but not obsolete (and looks quite modern).
