The language creator(s) don't appear to have pretentions of displacing the entire world. Look at this quote: "Vale is powerful enough to use, and it feels really good to finally use Higher RAII in a real-life program. It's an incredibly versatile and valuable pattern, one that I hope Vale will bring into the mainstream!" Bring [Higher RAII] to the mainstream. It's a sandbox to experiment with a composition of ideas in the hope that some of these ideas influence the 'mainstream' including, perhaps, D. The number of new, fast, safe (for some value of safe) native languages that are appearing is amazing. I think this is down to powerful tools for creating native languages. We're in a new era of language development; the yawning gulf between C/C++ and the world of managed/scripting languages is being rapidly filled. This shouldn't be discouraged with "why not just make my preferred thing better?" Eventually it will.
