I think you don’t need to worry about that. They’ve probably invested around fifteen years of time into the language.

They want it because it gives them control over their future in a way that Kotlin or Java and the JVM do not.

The “bundle the whole world in your app” isn’t space efficient, but it’s efficient enough and sidesteps a large part of the outdated Android issue. Meanwhile the react-style components are very popular among devs with UI know-how. The rapid uptake of Flutter also speaks to the hole it is filling.

Then there’s FuschiaOS where they’re seemingly intent on making it the primary dev language.

Lots of good reasons to continue support and not many reasons not to. Sounds like a decent bet to me
