Programming Language (PL) is such a small part of the Software Engineering / SDLC, let alone running a business.
Also no real-life product or business is built using a single PL.
When choosing a PL there are lots of other factors to take into account beside its level of abstraction and/or expressiveness.
- wizofaus 4y ago> Also no real-life product or business is built using a single PL I've worked on many "real-life" products where that was exactly the case. And plenty where the only second language was for the script for running the build. I certainly agree choice of PL is only one of many factors that contribute towards success of a software company, but it's still an important one. Choosing a language that makes it impossible to find good devs who want to work for you is almost a guaranteed death sentence.
