My worry is that a lot what I like about Elm is just not compatible with the normal JS library ownership model. What I like is a) Very few features, just enough so you can get your work done and there's just one good way to do it. If you don't have a grumpy BDFL then feature creep is inevitable and your language won't be lean and beautiful like Elm (arguably) is. b) Infrequent releases so that you don't have to reinvent the wheel every few weeks. Elm gets like one release every two years and I very much like it that way. With a big community all helping to develop it rather than (again) one grumpy BDFL who drags their feet all the time there's no way they would be able to have that level of restraint.
