I agree with most of what you said here but I want to emphasize that this is not necessarily a good outcome. Fitting the brains of corporate devs is not a metric to measure if your goal is to make the best tool for the job - the majority of corporate devs are extremely mediocre at their job even with a language that they’re not scared of.

All that to say, I completely emphatically agree with the original comment. The world would have been so much better off with Scheme as the language of the web.
