Coalton: Why is the interop not easier, and why might it be necessary for Coalton to be an entire language in itself?

If you came here searching for the context in which some reddit comments were written, you might want to check out this previous version of the article.

Several blog posts have been written about Coalton, about how it can be useful and what it brings to the table.
