Elm and Rust have great error messages.

I was almost going to argue with you, but Rust takes pride in actively developing and improving error messaging and it is strongly to their credit.

So instead of "no languages" let's instead say "very few languages, and none of the top 8 languages according to TIOBE". (Rust is now #9 as of like just now when it was #18 a year ago, so mad props to them for breaking into the top 10!)

And credit where credit's due, Rust got into that inspired by Elm.
