Actually, it is a problem that makes people reluctant to use 
Google technologies and that overall harms the Google eco-system 
way beyond individual projects.

Dart recently announced that they are now on github. In the 
comment field on that announcement people complained about how 
their workplaces choose Typescript over it, despite Dart being 
more suitable. They think Google will abandon it. In other news 
Google claimed to have 1 million lines of internal Dart code and 
use it for their ad sales services. So apparently they would like 
to keep the eco system alive.

People are not abandoning Dart because shows any signs of being a 
dead or a bad language, they do it because they don't trust 
Google.
