> Under these discretions languages like OCaml and Rust seem to make the cut.

I absolutely agree! I am gradually learning both and I am just getting so angry that I didn't know about OCaml like 10-15 years ago. :( I was just so damn busy surviving and being depressed for a heckton of [dumb] reasons for 15 years. And then I woke up.

Now I am just a regular web CRUD idiot dev who, even though he was very clever and inventive and creative in the past, nowadays seems to get pissed at small details like configuring web frameworks (even though I am still much better than a lot of others, I dare say -- proven with practice... or so I like to think). And now I have to work against the negative inertia of my last 15 years and learn the truly valuable concepts and how they are implemented in those two extremely efficient, if a bit quirky in syntax, languages.

But it seems every time somebody says "let's just keep these N languages and kill everything else", no discussion is possible... And I feel we really must only keep a few languages/runtimes around and scrap everything else.
