I think the spirit of the question is "what if you didn't have to check other people's opinion and the job market to pick a language?", it's kind of the opposite of what you've done here.

Well not quite. I based it on the Stack Overflow developer surveys as well (Tiobe too). Tiobe is basically a measure for how often a language is searched for, if I am not mistaking. Rust for example has a small market share (based on the Indeed Japan results). I still want to use Rust (even if I don't get to use it in a professional setting).

Though, I understand your sentiment, but I guess it's a "technically I am right situation". Or what do you think?

Tl;dr: I picked Rust. :)

Edit: Though on a second thought: you are actually right! :) Sorry OP!
