I like where this thread is headed.
To expand on this idea, maybe we should demonstrate how diversity and
inclusiveness can work in an operating system via language choices.
Why stop at TCL and LUA? Or even scripting languages in general. Why
not Go, Rust, Haskell and Scala too?
Hear me out. We can set up a raffle system so that each winner can
write their winning tool in their language of choice. All the
parallel development will even solve the "multi year effort" problem
that was brought up by the original poster too. Nobody will mind
having another 8 or 9 languages in the base system, right?
