It was just very difficult primarily because of the way the license limitations and install steps made it difficult to drop it into the existing python tooling ecosystem.

I haven’t tried it in a long time, but as it’s a Python superset, I tried to drop it into my jupyter notebook docker container and you had to agree to license terms and register your email and install a modular package that contained a bunch of extra things.

If you want to get widespread adoption for a python superset, you would probably want to get it included in the official jupyter docker images as people who do this sort of programming like to use a jupyter repl, but they just made it so difficult.

I’m no open source zealot and I’m happy to pay for software, but I think the underlying language needs to be a lot more open to be practical.
