Yeah I don't disagree. But even there you would have similar other considerations besides the language. Like most still end up with C/C++ there even though there are others like Crystal, Nim, but you just don't find developers who know them easily, nor do you have any ecosystem support.

Because C++ and C are significantly better than Nim and Crystal.
There are also Ada and Spark and aerospace and very critical stuff.

We don't look for OCaml/Ada developers, we hire programmers, and they program OCaml and Ada. It's not a big deal for a good programmer to learn a language, especially while programming side by side with seasoned programmers.
Totally depends on a domain. In serious mission critical software you wont use libraries, but will use the language.
