Perhaps that did not come across in the article well. When I set out to do Leaf that was the goal of the work. It's wasn't a diversion to some other goals. Over time my priorities changed, and I was trying to force myself to follow Leaf to follow them.

Had I wanted to make a game from the start I would most certainly not have made a language first! That would be crazy. And that's my comments about sunk costs -- just because I have Leaf, it'd still be crazy to do this other projects in it.
