This isn't really related to the discussion here, but I have never used any language other than Swift for scripting. I made a Swift built script for concatenating Metal files for ARHeadsetKit, instead of using bash. I also taught someone just starting out with programming to use Swift instead of Powershell and Bash. Now he's using Swift for self-motivated projects like exploring sorting algorithms (@cody-ferguson on GitHub).
Also, I'm trying to resurrect Swift for TensorFlow partially because I've gotten tired over how difficult Python is to configure in an IDE context (see link below). I think your repo is interesting and incredible work!
