> if rescript/reason issue harmed rescript. Personal anecdote: yes, it has. I was very interested in Reason when it appeared, and it seemed to have immense momentum: exploring arguably better (or more familiar) syntax, tool integrations etc. I know that people ran regular OCaml workflows/projects with it. And then the whole split happened ... why? "We don't want to be constrained by OCaml" while keeping all of OCaml's syntactic idiosyncrasies among other things doesn't sound like a proper, well, reason. This is where I stopped being interested (and as I imagine, many people stopped, too). Because a slit in a niche miniature language (which it was at the time) means only one thing: not enough resources to continue with either one. It doesn't help that the whole split was confusing to everyone.
