Because lots of languages have first-class functions, and prototypical inheritance isn't actually that good an idea and most people just use it to implement bad class systems.

These days nobody even knows that its prototypical inheritance. There is a class syntax now and everyone uses that. `class Foo extends Bar { ... }`
