Doubtful.

No telemetry means data gaps exist here.  Big gaps.  Available data 
sources include customer surveys, language product license purchases, 
Java downloads, and arriving language-related bug reports.

VSI lacks insight into the scale and language mix of the customer 
source pools, and lacks insight into the usage of languages including 
but not limited to Perl, Python, Macro32, Bliss, Lua, TPU, and DCL.

Lots of anecdata and guesswork exists here, certainly.  And VSI will 
undoubtedly survey at least some of their customers' usage and 
mixtures, and some of whom might answer and some of whom won't.

And when asking these sorts of questions, also ponder what Abraham Wald 
and the Statistical Research Group had realized about collected data.
