How about because all those you list don't have user interface ties. Maybe because all those you list aren't heavily used by the majority where an outdated or exploit-prone version would matter. People who do use the examples you listed often install their own versions because the Apple versions are out of date.

Very good point there! Speaking of exploits - both Java and Flash run in the browser and are therefore susceptible to web based drive by attacks. None of the other technologies are exposed to the outside world.
