ORLY?

Maybe you can put together a better, faster team (like Presonus managed to do for Studio One), but most current DAWs have been in existence for 20 years or more. Catching up with that is a challenge, and if you don't catch up then it's an interesting toy or half-a-DAW.

So why?

ps. obviously I am biased.

This argument applies equally to programming languages, and Zig seemed to go OK?

Oh yes, it absolutely applies to all programming languages.
