"It should have two compilers" is a pretty arbitrary benchmark for production readiness. I'd suggest the benchmark be based on, idk, something with any fucking meaning.

>something with any fucking meaning

So you claim to have a better metric, feel free to share it?

site broken and wont let me reply any more: "shipped into production" is meaningless, compilers are directly related to language community and complexity.

How about numerous companies shipping Rust to production for years? That metric is actually related to risk with regards to shipping rust in production, unlike number of compilers, which signifies nothing.
