I suspect some people are. Languages have network effects, which get stronger when FFI is uncommon. My team and codebase mostly keep me on Java even though I find Kotlin clearer in every way and I'd love to get better with Scala and Haskell. If for some reason my team switched to something like Go or VB I'd have to find another job or else put up with it.
