Scala comes with a lot of overhead in terms of features (and breaking changes in versions) and is still missing the meta-programming aspect of this library. In fact, scala has now deprecated all it's previous attempts at meta-programming and is still trying to work out it's next attempt (which is I believe black-box only so can't do what this library does).
