If your project has high turnover (say 20%+) then a blub language makes a lot of sense.
Any gains from using a richer language are dwarfed by extra time spent getting new developers up to speed.
I've worked on projects with an average tenure of 9 months and projects with an average tenure of 4 years. The approach you have to take is completely different.
There is just so much variation in our industry.
As an example the most important work I did on one project was setup and maintain a prebuilt dev environment image. It saved many dev years worth of effort. We were adding ~15 new devs/month.
On the other hand I've also worked on projects where setting up and maintaining a prebuilt dev environment would be a complete waste of resources. We were adding a new dev every ~18 months.
