Am I guessing correctly that Scala is "getting in the way of getting things done"?

That's a Texas sized 10-4
What's so bad about Scala? I've only used it for hobby projects myself.
Using it in a context where you need to make money, it's a bad bet. Fine for academic ideas and such things, but really hard to build a business around. And the tooling, community, libs, and docs show how it just can't punch the same weight as other languages when at the end of the day you need to get shit done.
