This argument is getting a bit tediuos. It started with you offering an opinion. I offered a counter-opinion, while clearly marking my opinion as such using language such as "I think ...", "I would say ...", "If I were to speculate ..."

I'm clearly not alone with my opinion (see original post), and you're trying to undermine your opponents' credibility by getting ad-hominem and pointing out that their position lacks the kind of research which you yourself did not provide either.

Hyperbole. Many things were designed to do the things they now do. Lua was designed as a language for embedding. SQL was designed as a language for querying databases.
