It's the "sadness of mortal men" as Tolkien put it. So many awesome languages in this world, so little time to learn and use them.
If you're anything like me, it's because you're getting older and have increasingly limited free time and energy that you can no longer dedicate to learning new programming languages.
Because learning new things is hard and hard things tire us out. we should endeavor to learn new things everyday.

a reference to 'long covid' causing exhaustion, and aspirin breaking up the blood clots thought responsible- you can tell it's a joke by the dim color of the text
