If you look at https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/, Python's growth really started in 2018 which was before langchain, streamlit, and fastapi.
May be that Python 2 to Python 3 migration was holding it back but it is remarkable that it shows positive strides or was relatively stable even within that transition period.

There are many clear reasons imo.
