At least Scheme is a kind of established language that has uses outside of this specific application.
One of the "What's Stopping it" arguments this article makes about Nix is it's "arcane syntax", to the point that the first thing proposed was to replace the Nix language with something more standard.
No arguments there :\ As much as I love nixos, nix is a horrible language
