I mean, JavaScript and Python have definitely become much more popular for many more things than they were in 2010.

I doubt Swift replaced much besides other compiled languages, and Kotlin just compiles to Java anyway. Dart's VM idea was dropped so its small usage is largely compiling to JS still.

I would say that the overall idea of performance being traded for programmer time is definitely happening despite the emergence of Rust.
