Lua is written in C, which is a very different language these days. Snabl uses the C++ standard library all the way through, which leads to a tighter fit in C++ applications. And I have enough issues with some of Lua's design choices to rule it out either case. Everything is most definitely not a table and I want an expressive, generic and gradual type system built in.
