What about C and Python are "native to Bash's environment" though? That's the complaint the person you're responding to is touching on.

Also, lots of Linux distributions don't come with GCC and Clang by default (Ubuntu, Debian, OpenSUSE).

Bash is written in C so depending on C doesn't add a dependency.

Python is also the 2nd most popular scripting language in the Linux world; it's even part of the Freedesktop base runtime. Though I don't know if it's standard in BSDs.
