It will be interesting to see what the subset is.

I have been writing scala for 2 years, mostly in spark and flink and as much as I love parts of it, overall, the language is just not the most approachable. Some of the features are super valuable every once in a while, but I might gladly give some of them up for a streamlined language that is easier to get people started on (while not just writing imperative style Java with Scala syntax)

My other curiosity is compatibly. If I can compile a subset of my project much faster that doesn't need all of Scala, that seems like an okay place to be in.
