These are strong points and I think the methodology behind Carbon is the correct one. The elephant in the room is that once Google decide to drop Carbon my existing code base will be dependant on a dead technology and then I am screwed.
I find it hard to trust Google to maintain any software nor to write software that is maintainable by a community. They write software for themselves and themselves alone.

If it (purportedly?) exists so that Google can move multi-million line code bases from C++ to something better bit-by-bit, because it's otherwise infeasible to do so, why would Google drop it after they have ported the first million? You can simply wait to see if Chrome adopts it.
