Agreed. I think people tend to forget that: you do not have to pick a single language. it is trivial to use another language just for that single library. there are many way to communicate, it is not like method calling is always the hard requirement since you do not have to choose a single language, the killer feature of that language is mostly useless, even if there is no other language that have the similar feature, people would just write a some glue code to bridge it with their main codebase. and usually, there is no such thing at unique feature that only that a single language can have. sure, it can be achieved easier in that language for some use case, but even so, a single bridge file is probably enough. aka nobody would invest in your language. writing software is mostly using other people libraries anyway. the thing we write the most is some common business logic, thus the syntax is extra important, or rather, the DX is the most important thing. heck if the experience is great enough I can throw thousands hours to write the libraries/frameworks myself, it is (usually) not that hard. it always turns me off seeing a new introduced language that syntax wise is a carbon copy of rust or C. no thank you, if you not even want to think about the syntax, why should we believe that you can deliver something truly innovative?
