When I already know what I want to write, especially for MVP or PoC, I reach for the tool I'm most comfortable with.
In my case, it is Perl and HTML/HTTP, and I don't care if it's not "en vogue" in the mainstream, it's the quickest language I can prototype with.
Just because it's not popular anymore doesn't mean it can't get the job done. Especially if you're not using a lot of libraries, there are many reasons to use a less popular language, and few not to.
