No no. MATLAB is used A LOT in industry, today, wherever advanced & embedded control is needed. Even the latest ASML chipmaking machines run on a lot of code (actively) developed in MATLAB. For real-time motion control, MATLAB+Simulink is very powerful in deploying to embedded systems through code generation with the MATLAB Coder toolboxes (which automatically turns MATLAB/Simulink stuff into C/C++). No horrible MATLAB runtime business needed then.
