So if it isn't easier to use, and less performant, why are these poor toolsets being chosen?

That would explain why they continue to be used after initial adoption. It doesn't explain why they were initially chosen if there were better options using something that already existed.

History and inertia also are nearly synonymous with "easier to use" in this context.
