Not "industrial success" because there were none, but rather a validity of some of the ideas. Which were successful only when adopted by some other languages, like Scala (which has a lot of issues on it's own), Kotlin or Rust.

Influencing a whole language of other industry languages to be closer to your model, that's what I would call industrial success for a radical experimental language dedicated to inventing and exploiting a new programming paradigm. Different criteria, I suppose.
