As a general rule, don’t use a corporation’s language. Languages, and their reference implementation, should be truly independent.
Edit: To be clear, programming language.

Corporation? I’m not anti business, far from it. But I have an interest in economics as well as technology. We need effective markets. CUDA is an example of a market problem caused by a corporation’s own language. It has screwed up competition.
