Bullshit argument. There is much less demand for iOS-only or 
Android-only development than cross-platform. Swift is not 
cross-platform. Thus Dart and other solutions are cheaper. 
Cheaper wins.

What makes Swift annoying is related to Objective-C requirements. 
Swift + C++ is ok for development of Apple-only applications.
