I can call out to C libraries from other languages, so that's not a big deal.

In addition, I think that probably the JVM ecosystem is larger and that Python may be as well.

You also find certain things at the bottom (like glibc, for example) where the C ecosystem isn't as diverse as you think it is.

For Linux userland, there are also musl and uClibc-ng. Other platforms have their own libcs.
