Seems to me that this is sort of an opt-in venture. Sounds like fun but I am not sure most teams would want to chance that they switch to an unfamiliar language on what will most certainly be a new platform they will not probably have weeks into a 6 week build. Definitely worth learning to do outside of the build season however.
