I mean this is a little pedantic. It's true he never said that only games are able to use his language as if it were some kind of law, but he did say that his language is being designed to address issues that video game developers face and that was his main, and almost exclusively his only concern.

If other domains benefit from that, he's not going to actively bar them from using his language, but he also won't give them much consideration.

It's just false, i'm in the closed beta and there are a lot of people that use it for other things than games. When they find a bug or have a suggestion he give them the same consideration as anyone.

What people use it for and what it's meant for are two different things.
