The actor model is not performant with numerical computing since there are usually messaging overhead. And it might be more straightforward and use it in the typical ways instead of putting them in actors.
If it is worth learning, the really depending on what you want from this language. It was and it would be the most novel language in the mainstream industry - it has almost all the features developers can dream of, and most of the features are not arbitrarily piled together like C++, instead, there are synergies between features.
With that being said, it's still a hard language to learn. And programmers from different backgrounds wouldn't interpret it in the same way. In real-world codebases, if the teams are not very good at training and aligning, it would be too diverse.
All in all, it's not only a get-things-done technology like Go, but it's pretty educating and mind-blowing.
