> compelling environmental arguments against a computationally taxing dynamic language
Cost of development has always been the more significant cost over compute power for these businesses. Considering the entire web uses under 10% of the global energy rewriting your entire stack in c++ for the small performance improvement is not going to make a dent in that.
Why would businesses do this for such a small environmental improvement when they could spend half the money putting in solar and produce significantly more green energy than their stack uses?
