We totally want to see Mojo go into all these places! It's just that Modular can't fund use of Mojo in (eg) gamedev or embedded development (at least not in the foreseeable future). Open sourcing the implementation is a big part of helping catalyze those developments in the community.

In my experience, a diverse community of people who want similar but /different/ things is what builds out a thriving community. This is why LLVM is pretty great for example: lots of people have a shared view on what technical excellence means, but they all want different things so you get a well balanced ecosystem, not just "Apple's compiler".
