I think I might not have been clear when I said that reason is dead. Let me try again: ReasonML was a sort of collaboration between bucklescript (the ocaml->js compiler) and the Reason syntax. They recently parted ways, with the bukclescript part being renamed to ReScript (as well as using their own syntax). That leaves not much to be under the name "Reason", which is basically just a syntax.
The companies that use it (such as mine) are moving to ReScript. Or, to put it more accurately, they have always been using ReScript just people referred to it as Reason at the time.

I meant relative to Reason. (fyi: rescript used to be called bs-platform, and that continues to have 8k downloads, so it's more like 12k for rescript)
