Elm changed my mind about unpopular languages

Actually, I used to work with Evan Czaplicki (the author of Elm) at Prezi around 2015. He was laid off with a bunch of other employees during a “reorg”. It didn’t seem to have affected Elm.

That's not a ringing endorsement of Elm's commercial viabity. Prezi hired the Elm creator and funded Elm development and then ran out of money to pay him.

What does that have to do with Elm's commercial viability? The only conclusions I can draw from that are about Prezi's commercial viability.
