> most companies prefer standard languages where it is easy to recruit standard-level talent for standard wages. With the added benefit of easier recovery when the main programmer leaves and take with him/her all his/her knowledge about the code. I've heard about this plenty of times when in a relatively small company, using [name your preferred somewhat exclusive language here] was preferred because someone made that decision alone, a long time ago, and the end result being almost unmaintainable code and longer than average time to get going or even find replacements.
