And yet almost no one chooses to write new Fortran code for applications. We rely on a few ancient critical widely used libraries like BLAS, accessed from non-Fortran programs.

This is not true, there are niches where Fortran is still dominant for new code.

Also for BLAS, the underlying code is usually no longer Fortran.
