Well it's a lack of training problem.
Someone properly trained with something like Smalltalk will on average output 3x the amount of software as someone trained on something like Java.
There are big advantages to doing it.

While not bad long-term thinking, by the time developers are up to speed with Smalltalk and realizing three times the output, the competition using the ecosystem its developers already knew will have launched something and won over the customers. It doesn't matter how much software you can crank out after you've already lost.
