> systems languages (as opposed to applications languages We shouldn't need such a wide separation between what is system vs application. The difference is essentially a few additional keywords and a compiler. But the simplicity comes from a high-level language, so you always need the high-level language. You only need the low-level language when you need to optimize something. So naturally, the high-level language should be the basis for a language that can do both. TypeScript is now well-established enough that its syntax should be used as this basis, and it natively targets the web which nothing else does.
