Ah, but you see, it was a general purpose programming language. A general purpose, functional, optionally-typed programming language, with its own optimizing compiler and build system. In fairness, it wasn't originally developed to be our in-house language, but it was the creation of the CTO.
It was fun while it lasted and I had a lot of fun working on it. But it was really not a good business fit. The programmatic macro system was supposed to allow us to build customer-facing DSLs on top of it, but everybody just wanted Python anyways.
