I skimmed through the language docs because I can't be bothered with the PR video.

It appears to be a weird mishmash of Rust and Python (fully duplicating the Rust borrow checker). Honestly seems like a Julia competitor more than anything.

I see no notable innovations or killer features really. Just a lot of small tweaks and improvements that don't seem like they'll motivate anyone to adopt this. It will have to be attached to some other big product to have a chance.
