Yes, co-development of languages with applications of language is important.

Not sure about “one”, though, Usually you want more than one example before you generalize to a library -> framework -> language.

As one of my professors used to say (a lot):

“Man kann nur von etwas abstrahieren das man verstanden hat”

You can only abstract from something you have understood. And premature abstraction is probably one of our biggest problems.
