More that occur to me:

advanced  (relative to current industry languages)
pragmatic (i.e. not dogmatic about functional programming)
safe      (shorter than "type safe")

"High level" might have better connotations than "advanced."  "Advanced"
could mean "requires too many brains to understand," hence a negative
for the Dilbert types.  I think I'm leaning towards the following 4
descriptors:

  high level, safe, fast, pragmatic
