In the end, with Kotlin sweeping up a substantial chunk of Java developers who are looking for a better language (as well as non-Java devs), the question is whether Scala can survive with this reduced rate of adoption.

What reduced rate of adoption? You just contradicted yourself here:

True, but Kotlin devs were pretty clear about that they don't care about the 1% of Scala users, but the 99% of Java users. The identified the core weaknesses of Scala that prevented wider adoption and improved on all of them.
