Gleam is nice. However it is still very lacking in the stdlib. You will need lots of dependencies to build something usable. I kind of wish Gleam could target something like Go, then you would have the option to go native without a "heavy" VM like the BEAM.
Surely the BEAM is one of the major selling points.
Not for executables. Not everything needs an runtime.
In a world with package management there’s no practical difference between the core modules being in one package or multiple packages.
