A single binary dependency may be a better fit for one project as you outline, but I would make the wider case for a common core language that provides a DSL toolkit with a recursive descent style Grammar capability. This helps to build critical mass across multiple DSLs to maintain and improve a secure code base. In turn, DSL authors get a more productive development environment. Raku embeds Grammar support for DSLs and will soon have AST introspection for "Slang" authors to reach in and build elements directly...

I'm still looking forward to a single binary for each of the following:

* NQP

* Rakudo

* Rakudo programs
