The project got a lot of attention at launch, but it wasn't really ready to be used back then. There were too many limitations, like u24 numbers (yes), 2 GB memory limit, pervasive strictness (if-then-else executed both branches). It was just not practical.I think (hope) that explains a lot of it. But honestly there is also my own failure into making the language actually be used, rather than just a viral moment :( I hope it will be different this time!
