> The goal of the Swift project is to create the best available language for uses ranging from systems programming, to mobile and desktop apps, scaling up to cloud services. https://swift.org/about/

I'm having trouble finding the specific bit about "default language for computer science," might have been his interview on the ATP podcast. anyway

What Chris Lattner might desire and what Apple wants isn't the same thing, specially since nowadays he doesn't get much to say on where Swift goes.

Had he stayed at Apple overseeing the language design I would agree.
