I've gone down roads similar to this. Long story short - the architecture solves for a lower priority class of problem, w/r to games, so it doesn't pay a great dividend, and you add a combination of boilerplate and dynamism that slows down development.

Your top issue in the runtime game loop is always with concurrency and synchronization logic - e.g. A spawns before B, if A's hitbox overlaps with B, is the first frame that a collision event occurs the frame of spawning or one frame after? That's the kind of issue that is hard to catch, occurs not often, and often has some kind of catastrophic impact if handled wrongly. But the actual effect of the event is usually a one-liner like "set a stun timer" - there is nothing to test with respect to the event itself! The perceived behavior is intimately coupled to when its processing occurs and when the effects are "felt" elsewhere in the loop - everything's tied to some kind of clock, whether it's the CPU clock, the rendered frame, turn-taking, or an abstracted timer. These kinds of bugs are a matter of bad specification, rather than bad implementation, so they resist automated testing mightily.

The most straightforward solution is, failing pure functions, to write more inline code(there is a John Carmack posting on inline code that I often use as a reference point). Enforce a static order of events as often as possible. Then debugging is always a matter of "does A happen before B?" It's there in the source code, and you don't need tooling to spot the issue.

The other part of this is, how do you load and initialize the scene? And that's a data problem that does call for more complex dependency management - but again, most games will aim to solve it statically in the build process of the game's assets, and reduce the amount of game state being serialized to save games, reducing the complexity surface of everything related to saves(versioning, corruption, etc). With a roguelike there is more of an impetus to build a lot of dynamic assets(dungeon maps, item placements etc.) which leads to a larger serialization footprint. But ultimately the focus of all of this is on getting the data to a place where you can bring it back up and run queries on it, and that's the kind of thing where you could theoretically use SQLite and have a very flexible runtime data model with a robust query system - but fully exploiting it wouldn't have the level of performance that's expected for a game.

Now, where can your system make sense? Where the game loop is actually dynamic in its function - i.e. modding APIs. But this tends to be a thing you approach gradually and grudgingly, because modders aren't any better at solving concurrency bugs and they are less incentivized to play nice with other mods, so they will always default to hacking in something that stomps the state, creating intermittent race conditions. So in practice you are likely to just have specific feature points where an API can exist(e.g. add a new "on hit" behavior that conditionally changes the one-liner), and those might impose some generalized concurrency logic.

The other thing that might help is to have a language that actually understands that you want to do this decoupling and has the tooling built in to do constraint logic programming and enforce the "musts" and "cannots" at source level. I don't know of a language that really addresses this well for the use case of game loops - it entails having a whole general-purpose language already and then also this other feature. Big project.

I've been taking the approach instead of aiming to develop "little languages" that compose well for certain kinds of features - e.g. instead of programming a finite state machine by hand for each type of NPC, devise a subcategory of state machines that I could describe as a one-liner, with chunks of fixed-function behavior and a bit of programmability. Instead of a universal graphics system, have various programmable painter systems that can manipulate cursors or selections to describe an image. The concurrency stays mostly static, but the little languages drive the dynamic behavior, and because they are small, they are easy to provide some tooling for.
