Swift suits Apple's purposes, Go acts in the same role for Google.
Is that our purpose, too? In what one might think is their market?

Once Apple's (Google's) produce becomes adopted by independent
organizations, then once again these will loose independence.
Controlling language, on behalf of We The People, e.g.,
will be political at best, and ISO can be used as an instrument
of hypocrisy, pushing voluminous "standardization" documents
though ECMA, first. (ISO-Swift, ISO-Go)

A difference to 1974 will be that the

   "minimal number of common, modern, high order
    computer programming languages"

is now equal to the number of big (well, rich) companies in the
computer market. They are in control, irrespective of the merits
and potential compatibilities of their language efforts.
