"No reason", at all? Have you seen how much standardized legwork is done with a backend framework like Rails and Django? How much easier that is to work with other developers because everyone is following known conventions? With Django, there's also the huge benefit of millions of data libraries an import away. When I search for client libraries to do something, anything under the sun has a Python client. Much much less so with Go, C#, and Java.

How is Django different from, say, ASP.Net Core in that respect?

It's not imo but ASP.NET MVC is uniquely good among frameworks for statically typed languages. Java, Go, etc don't have anything comparable.

You lost me at Java. Web development was popular in Java well before it took off for Python, and it's been one of the most popular programming languages period since it's inception. There's been multiple supported clients for anything I've ever wanted to connect to.
