Indeed if anyone ever earned the right to make a new language - they did. They were the first to make js really fast and they pulled every trick in the book (from their extensive VM writing experience). But they were ultimately blocked by things like the ability of js objects to change shape. I sympathise with their frustration and from an engineering point of view they did the right thing. They solved the root cause of the problem which was the language.
