Programming languages and systems are basically theorems.

The nice thing about theorems is that even when they're old, they're still theorems.

I don't completely agree. To follow your analogy, I don't think the languages themselves are "theorems". Rather they are notation. Some notation is shorthand. Some is quite verbose.

But in the end it is not the notation that makes or break a theorem. However, a theorem may be more or less clear depending on the notation.

No, because they can literally not run, or contain security vulnerabilities.
