While interopability is important in the desktop and server space, and for legacy systems, I am not 100% convinced that for a new and highly curated/guarded platform like android/iOS it matters that much. Google/Apple expect most people to develop using the platform canonical language.
Also while C has great interop. it still comes at a cost, you loose a lot of modern programming constructs like exception, static initialization, reflection and garbage collections.
