Nobody can take Elm seriously because having lines of code in Elm is a liability at this point.
If Evan hadn't wanted this to happen, he shouldn't have positioned it as the "beginner-friendly" language and then pulled the petty dictator routine out as soon as people were locked into his ecosystem.
> Nothing demonstrates this better than coming back to an old Elm application and immediately making meaningful changes to the code despite a long hiatus from using Elm at all.
Or... not having it compile because the BDFL (or, realistically, DFL) has decided to remove half the features it needed to compile.
