We had a very bad experience with infojs (which still lacks maintenance). I'd rather go for extendable infrastructure than implementing something from scratch. For org-ql, there are other reasons why org-ql is not upstreamed. They have nothing to do with the lack of motivation. They have something to do with the lack of free time on Adam's side.
