Language where most of the libraries are without GC, but has an GC opt in would be interesting. For example only your business logic code would use GC (so you can write it more quickly). And parts where you don't want GC are still written in the same language, avoiding the complexity of FFI. Add opt-in development compilation JIT for quick iteration and you don't need any other language. (Except for user scripts where needed.)
