I'm skeptical about extrapolating too much from a JavaScript example. That ecosystem looks nothing like the rest of the software development world.

Erlang has been around in a niche role for >30 years and still going strong, even stronger now that Elixir has reinvigorated interest in the platform.

My only point in that you should be as careful about creating problems building a team and adding ramp-up time to your product when you attempt to optimize. It's a decision that doesn't go away without lots of heartburn and having employees lose morale rewriting their own work.
