I can think of at least 3 that deserve a whole integral bullet point:
* ADTs
* Hindley-Milner/typeclass type system
* Lifetimes and affine types
And a bunch of minor ones that count for something like 0.1-0.5 of an advantage.
I would guess we're on track for a majority-of-new-code switchover point somewhere around 2030-2035.
