Well, what I meant is that there is some language feature missing. So either the language gets "better" in the sense that this feature is being added, or a different language is chosen, that is already "better" in that the feature already exists. So yeah.

Probably because the runtime is always the lowest common denominator. That being said, there are lots of tools e.g. written in Scala but then being used by Java, such as Akka or Spark. And the other way around of course.
