@whitequark @julesh @typeswitch there's no lack of interesting designs, the problem is that there's so much to know, and the installed base is a giant pool of tar where people will happily stay until the pain of change is lower than the pain of staying. This gives a certain bonus to languages that change "not too much" (30 years out of date) since they can make for an easier step.
