Python started out as a language for teaching programming and evolved into what is now one of the most used languages in the world for all sorts of use cases. I wonder if Bril could follow the same trajectory, becoming the common language for creating compilers

One hopes we can have nice things from the get-go next time around.

Various languages have deliberately shunned green threads, lambdas, generics, and/or compile-time type-checking, only to try to shoe-horn them in later.
