You claim that IF/Prolog is "the most widely supported programming language".
Do you have any evidence to support this?  Or is it just marketing hype?
There is at least one other language that is available on more platforms.
(ACU-COBOL - it was available on over 700 platforms last time I checked.)

Please don't make false advertising claims.
