Did you read the linked article? It is a pretty thorough explanation along with surveys of students. Only 22% liked racket!

So most people who know almost nothing about programming hate Racket. Can't say I find that compelling.
But they prefer Python.

I think we need to note that the specific population you are referring to is directly the ones who are being affected. It might also be a good idea to consider their input.

I remember in high school when only 20% of my class liked math. We should stop teaching math, right?
