Exactly this; frankly, I think it's amazing that Haxe is as relatively well known as it is given it's humble origins at a once obscure* French game development studio.
It's not a surprise at all that the likes of Microsoft and Google and Mozilla are able to promote and push new languages to significant widespread adoption.
*Not so obscure anymore; Motion-Twin is well known for the hit game Dead Cells, and their former employee, Nicolas Cannasse, who is credited with inventing Haxe, went on to found his own studio with its own successful games (Northgard especially)
