You can learn all that stuff by doing and looking at other people’s design, it’s a bit niche to package that up into a ln advanced language design/compiler class, everyone is making different trade offs so are focusing on different things. There also isn’t really a market for more than a few highly trained language designers and implementers, and most wind up doing different things than what they were trained for.
