It would have been fantastically expensive to buy support - the language was never the vendor's primary product, or even close to it. That cost should have been a warning sign about the magnitude of the risk exposure we were taking on.
Unfortunately, there's no easy path back off of that language now. We have megalines' worth of investment into using it, and that can't be backed out faster than it was written, really.
