Well, I don't know what you consider "significantly sized enterprise platforms", so I can't really refute you on that. Maybe, possibly, include a small example here? Your complaints about the "MVC middleware stack implementation" only underscore the fact that you're making unsourced allegations here. DotNET middleware has been remarkably stable, only requiring some minor adjustments to source code. So, really, can you give me one, just one concrete example of how .NET has "costs big money for clients"? Software maintenance costs money, yeah. In Java, in Golang, in (dare I say it?) Rust, in C#. But is the latter platform really that much worse than any of the former?
