It's already written, but things require absolute efficiency and high performance, like HPC and ML cannot be done without C++.

I develop some HPC code, and most of them is infeasible without C++.

Other languages' high performance libraries PIL and numPy is written with C & C++.

NVidia GPUs are now designed explicitly for running C++ code efficiently.

Assuming another systems language, e.g. Rust, does indeed replace C++'s use cases, it is still a very long path until it gets this adoption level from hardware vendors.
