OPA/Styra founder here. I've long held the belief that part of the reason declarative languages are useful is that non-experts can use them without needing to learn the ins-and-outs of programming. That by restricting the language's expressiveness, we can build compilers/interpreters/evaluators/... that deeply inspect and understand the code, e.g. resulting in automatic performance optimization that in traditional languages developers would be doing themselves.If that's true, then what we really want is a way to give everyone a syntax they are most comfortable with, so they have the shortest learning curve. Some people like declarative languages; some like imperative; some want configuration
