[rubyrescue]

We have a team of data scientists that pretty much exclusively use python and a team of server devs that nearly exclusively use Erlang.

I could see a use for this, though I will say we've pretty much made separate services and these services communicate (in order of urgency) - via HTTP, Rabbit, or by rolling HBase tables on some schedule.

Because of that decoupling, this seems less necessary, but I could certainly see a place for it.
