Exactly!
I'm not saying this is true for everyone, but for me in most
cases people choose, stay and will die with top known languages
because employment and many don't think about expanding
knowledge.
Where I live C# is the hot spot, and suddenly everyone knew how
to program with it, but unfortunately that's not the case, and
right now I'm seeing/fixing a big C# code base that smells like
s***.
I remember a quote from Paul Graham where he said that in 90's
while he was developing one of the first web shops (Via Web) in
Lisp, he would lose sleep only when competitors were developing
the same thing using Python (Unknown at the time) or any new
language.
