I'm sure the real reasons are political rather than financial.
Your response typifies the unpleasant atmosphere I've witnessed around Elm which is a shame as it's author and intentions seem so good.
Do not post about the alpha/RC version of elm-upgrade on reddit, twitter, HN , discourse etc
That's already an issue about alpha.elm-lang.org being broken, changing it to point at package.elm-lang.org gets me further but the next set of errors are so unhelpful I'm giving up.
It explicitly says I'm not allowed to tell you that the auto upgrade doesn't work for me and there's no details on how to do it manually.
Sigh I'll try again in a few months.. maybe.
This is pretty much consistent with my elm experience, I've never found it professional enough to consider for a production application.
There's some excellent libraries but the Elm documentation is terrible compared to Reason.
ReasonML breaks from full compatibility, it can pick and choose JavaScript features to compromise between familiarity and functionality.
At the other extreme you have Elm, which has a similar background but won't compromise so can offer a clean break from JavaScript.
I'm a hiring manager and having a firehose of applicants would fill me with dread. My company has tried various "hacker" recruitment sites and they are all terrible - in terms of candidates and the supposed tests they use to rank applicants.
Recruiters are expensive but so is my time, they are very much a necessary evil for the foreseeable future.
