Turbo Pascal has much faster compile times than Kotlin. Compile time just isn't that big a deal as a feature.

It's not a feature, until it becomes a problem. It is a problem in Scala.

I use Scala every day. IntelliJ uses incremental compilation, so most compiles complete quicker than it takes for me to reach for the mug of coffee next to my keyboard.
