Considering the complete absence of array languages in a field dominated by operations on tensors, I think it is fair to say that the terse array programming languages like APL aren't just niche languages. They're niche languages even in the category of niche languages.
In theory you should be able to define entire neural networks with the help of a handful lines of APL. You wouldn't even bother with complex frameworks offering you pre-built architectures. You'd just copy paste the 10 lines of fully self contained APL code that describes the network from the documentation, because even the idea of downloading a library is overkill.
