It was a shame that most people, seemingly the Eve devs as well, seemed to focus on making Eve a language for easy programming for the masses. Thats a huge wall of a problem with a limited funding slope.
I think if there had been more upfront work and focus on the distributed programming/database possibilities, that Eve would have founded an actual community to push it along.
Eve as a language for doing business logic against say Kubernetes? As a language to wire up ETL processes?
I think it could have found a niche that would have made it grow in power before trying to take on the mass market.
I assume Lineage Driven Fault Injection stuff [1] has some overlap with Eve's ability to tell you "Why is this blank?": The datalog model allows you to find the logical dependencies of results.

Just a thought.
