In other words, it requires major pushing from the platform vendor.
It'd be impossible for some third-party to make a language that
successful, I expect. And even *with* that kind of pushing, it's
pretty chancy; there was a time (maybe times, I don't remember) when
Microsoft tried hard to require "managed code" everywhere (aka ".NET
runtime only"), and the push-back was so strong that they had to
abandon the requirement. But somehow, people accept rules about phone
apps that they wouldn't accept about desktop apps... crazy stuff.
