Packaging and making build scripts is perhaps one of the most unrewarding tasks out there. As an open source project where most work is done for free, debian can't afford to be prescriptive about what languages are used for this sort of task.

Actually it can and it is. Build system dependencies, especially ones that apply to all packages, are something that concerns the distribution as a whole and not something where each developer can just add their favorite one.
