> "Eternal Language"

Even more than being able to compile and run it in a few decades (which is awesome) there is also the part that such eternal language ecosystems grow excellent tooling (debuggers, tracing, performance analysis, source tooling, build tooling, library maturity, etc) thanks to the stable platform and all the years dedicated to making it all ever better.

I greatly dislike the language of the year hype not so much because the language change itself, but because all the wonderful mature tooling doesn't exist in the new shiny thing so we're back to debugging via print and performance analysis via guesswork.
