How do I measure the importance of a language?
I don't have any professional reasons to learn a language, and don't currently have any personal reasons to do so either.
When deciding whether or not to learn a language, or which language to learn next, I'd like to have some objective data along with my own personal preferences.
What metrics or other means can I use to evaluate the importance of a language?

I just want to point out that Language Learners usually don't evaluate several languages to learn. I can't imagine myself scratching my head and thinking, „Well, it seems I haven't learned L2 for a while. Which one should I focus now?“ In reality instead, I know myself thinking like, „I desperately need improving my Mandarin Chinese because the entire Northern Eurasia, upto the borders of my country, will speak it soon“.
