Is there also value in a paragraph or two explaining that a new language doesn’t mean rewriting the compiler or porting huge amounts of code python/perl/rust/ruby?

I think so. Maybe another document describing interoperability goals?

Sounds interesting - I was sort of thinking of comparing to language changes in java/python2>3/perl5>6 and trying to explain why Racket is different.

Ah I see what you mean. Yeah something like that could be helpful too.
