Interesting links - tnx. Apropos the optimism of "eventually", I think of language support for say key-value pair collections, namespaces, as still quite impoverished. With each language supporting only a small subset of the concision, apis, and datastructures, found useful in some other. This some 3 decades after becoming mainstream, and the core of multiple mainstream languages. Diminishing returns, silos, segregation of application domains, divergence of paradigm/orientation/idioms, assorted dysfunctions as a field, etc... "eventually" can be decades. Maybe LLMs can quicken that... or perhaps call an end to this era, permitting a "no, we collectively just never got around to creating any one language which supported all of {X}".
