Maybe you are right on that, but why do you consider that a bad thing? Different languages are for different things.
Your statement of non-enterprise projects off by a factor of 10-100x is partly because people jumped on the non-statically typed mess that Python is. Especially with all the AI related stuff.. yeah if you are doing some random little research project and you are a math person but don't want to take the time to do programming "correctly", then sure you can jump into python, use some libraries and get some results. It has it's purpose.
I don't know it's just silly to bulk everything together and pretend you can compare them.
Also saying .net is dying in enterprise is basically laughable.
