So much opportunity for anti-competitive behaviour. The "canonical representation" of C# could just be a memory dump of Visual Studio. Your code is held hostage forever. Everything you create belongs to Microsoft. You have to drink a verification can to keep using your IDE. Basically Unity/Adobe/etc, but for code. No thanks.

https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet there, the entire source code of runtime, sdk, roslyn, etc.

And you will have easier time getting your changes merged into dotnet/runtime than into Python.

It's HN, so the sarcasm above is often expressed seriously, as unfortunate as it is. You are right, of course.
