There is always new stuff and C# is going to still be much faster than say a python or ruby so just like go replaces a lot of stuff written in those languages it wouldn't be crazy to see C# used as well.

The ship hasn't sailed, but when they get to the ship it better be good enough.

C# does not compete with Python or Ruby. It competes with Java, which is already entrenched.

OP is suggesting that C# is competing with languages people are picking to replace Ruby or Python. A recent example is Parse[1] moving to Go. C# and .NET was their second choice.
