Some questions:
* I see many claims of "cross-platform", but not a lot of substance to back it up. The FAQ is odd as well - it makes many claims that are simply not true.
* Given that you chose to keep the source closed, what guarantees will I have that your language will continue to be supported if the company collapses?
* What are you offering in a paid language that isn't already provided by an open alternative?
* What is the state of the standard library or library ecosystem? Will I end up writing my own dependencies?
