Java is statically typed and a lot saner than Python, and JavaCard is a fairly restricted subset. Apparently real cards don't typically support garbage collection.

IMO JavaCard doesn't really make sense either. There's clearly space for another language here, though I suspect most people would much rather just use Rust than learn a new language.

That's fair, except a little reminder that for most people Rust is the new language. :)
