Not unless it keeps up with current needs.
10 years ago, who knew we'd want to download mpeg's of Britney Spears?
Nobody - it wasn't even possible.
Yet, somehow, software has been created to let us do just that.
If slow means falling farther and farther behind, then more and more people
will have move on to software which does keep up. That's ok too, if your
definition of "one-man language" means "one user".
