I agree that your list is of complex interesting things that Fortran is not the best, or even a good, choice for. But that doesn’t mean it‘s “dead”, and it is not. It’s not even sick.

For a new project that I would have chosen Fortran for five years ago, today I would choose Julia. But it’s still not dead. Anyone who thinks so does not read papers in computational physics, for example.
