Having written a lot of Scala, I generally agree until you can form a team that knows what they're doing or has a background in Scala. After that, Scala shines as the codebase(s) scale.

Substitute Scala for any other programming language and the statement still holds.

Experienced developers and those with specific language expertise excel when implementing in that language.

Who would have expected that? /s

The point is the barrier to entry for Scala is higher but once you have a skilled team working in Scala, you probably get more velocity than others due to the language ergonomics.

I don't think there are any (many?) studies on this subject. Much less that confirm this particular bias you've shown.
