Perhaps the author made it for themselves and not you...

Well it’d still be good to know why the author made it. Is it a toy language to learn about how to build a vm-interpreted language? Is it because the author can’t stand Python indentation. Or maybe there is a reason that clearly makes this interesting to use in the real world.

Because from the readme, it doesn’t look like this language brings anything to the table compared to Python/Node.

This is posted by the author himself, I find it pretty rude to let people figure out the point of their own project when promoting it.
“promoting” is a bit of an assumption. God bless Hacker News.
Is it? Irrespective of what I think of the post, I can't see any context in which posting it to a large forum full of strangers wouldn't count as 'promoting it'.
