    I don't understand the downvoting. The question is imho rather clear, and should be relevant also to other tech leads or senior developers. Also, it's not constructive. Without leaving any comment or suggestion for improvement (go to different community? provide more details? phrase it differently?), it's difficult to take this as a learning opportunity.

    "It seems to me almost like a political debating problem". Yep, you got it, and that's exactly why this question will be closed as too opinionated. Moreover, I think the premise is wrong, that there is a (absolutely) "best" language - there may be a best language for this group of people, and that's why in the end only a vote poll will work. But you may rewrite it a little and ask it on Workplace.SE instead. Commented Dec 9, 2021 at 6:46

    ... note also speculative, hypothetical situations are not well received by our community (and I guess its not much different on Workplace.SE). As an alternative, you could check if the question would be a good fit for interpersonal.stackexchange.com Commented Dec 9, 2021 at 6:54

    An important factor is fluency of your developer team with these technologies. A possible approach is to generate C++ or C code (like GCC or RefPerSys do....) from project specific formalisms. At last, most operating systems enable mixing several programming languages in a given application (perhaps by having several processes) Commented Dec 9, 2021 at 7:56

    I'm torn between downvoting due to the question being somewhat off-topic and upvoting because it brings up a problem that is indeed often encountered by development teams. The helpful answer by Bart swayed me towards upvoting, as the combo of question and answer could actually be valuable. Commented Dec 9, 2021 at 9:29
