>Pascal. Would Steve had went along with that?

I don't see why he couldn't have. It's a far more elegant language and it and other Wirth languages like Oberon have inspired several current programming languages. The standard programming language of the Lisa and Mac was Pascal, and Apple even added object oriented features to it as Clascal (earlier than Wirth's Oberon and not compatible with it).
