I think of it in the same way as JavaScript. Clearly, it has issues, but if you want to work on the web, it is what you have available. If you want to speak to Oracle/MySQL/SQL Server/Postgres database you are writing SQL. New entrants, could make a new language, but now they are fighting a battle on two fronts: the novel technology +query language.

And, interestingly, the approach they're taking here is similar to how folks have dealt with JS: introduce a transpiled language whose paradigms are close enough to the host language to feel familiar. Reminds me of CoffeeScript, actually (although if we're being honest, I couldn't stand CoffeeScript.)
