This is a very emotional piece. While a lot of his points are true from some perspective, they seem to come from an expectation that Elm should be treated the same as enterprise languages or frameworks, whose ultimate goal is to "get traction and adoption" as success measure.
I have used Elm in a hobby project, a multiplayer web game, which I have been developing over 4 years now. Elm has been a complete joy. New features and refactors are done incredibly fast AND safe. I believe this is due to Elm's restrictions letting no unsafe code "in".
