I find that it's problematic to learn due to the lack of documentation and consistence.
As for doing things easier, I think you may be referring to the platform. A different language would be able to interface the same thing.

I feel that a different language could improve productivity for more than two persons.

ECMAScript is very similar to GScript. Additionally, it shouldn't be too difficult to implement more than one language and make them cooperate to some degree (no need to go nuts).

People like it because it's unique? Shakespeare programming language is more unique.
It seems to me that holding the programmer's hand like GScript does makes it internally inconsistent, which exacerbates the problem with the lack of a formal documentation.
