I suspect the fact there's GNU Guile, an entirely in-house Scheme ecosystem, has a lot to do with it. Use Python and be beholden to the Python community (outsiders!) Use JSON (as someone else suggested) and be beholden to the Javascript/JSON community (outsiders! oh and that awful JSON license!) etc.

JSON is just a file format. A simple one too. There are plenty of parsers available, with various licenses.

I am really curious what Stallman thinks for the Don't Be Evil license.
