I have no issues with the language other than hiring pool is pretty small.

Unfortunately letting something like this sit means you have a huge time bomb of tech debt that only one person can work on. It is a liability for the company and long term profitability.

Any Java engineer worth their salt should be able to use a JVM derivative. If you hire people who are capable of using multiple languages then you won't have an organization of people restricted to a single language.. and the problem is gone.
