But if the big company behind it doesn't do anything, what difference does it make?
Or, if the big company doesn't do anything more than is done for other languages (Rust, say), what difference does it make? Is Rust marketed in the same way Go is? Per your definitions, I would say yes, even though the Mozilla Foundation isn't a big company.
But then, is Haskell marketed in the same way? I see lots of posts on it, at least here. Lots of blogposts on it. But there's no big company, or even foundation, behind it. Is that marketing?
Why do you define a set of actions as marketing when people who work for Google do it, but not when others do it?
