Possibly because C has too few features for your average programmers liking, and C++ is a nightmarish hellscape of sprawling features which you have to learn and then intentionally ignore if you want others to understand your code.

But I like Java, so feel free to ignore me.

I've written a lot of Java, so no problem there.

C is sparse. I like that. Less "clever ways to screw up that others have to debug later".

I can't disagree about C++. I only use a chunk of it myself.
