Nice article. Thank you. Btw they have a great podcast https://signalsandthreads.com/ - there are also many interesting things from JS members.
Jane Street is well known trading firm. But I think we have here chicken-egg problem) "importance of OCaml in its success".. or their success is important for the OCaml ecosystem? :)
The idea about choosing such language is not new. Paul Graham with his posts about Lisp even mentioned in the article. But first of all there are should be people, who will be smarter than others.

Imagine if they knew D ☀️
And now you found out what is Symmetry :) But I think D is not a big deal in that specific case of Jane Street.. And probably that's why Symmetry is making SIL. The idea of OCaml for Jane Street is type system. D just doesn't have this "feature".
