You would have said the same thing about PHP or Ruby (or even that they're past their breaking point), and yet companies that are stuck with either one today aren't too happy about it. The problem is that these days, there are a lot of people who can switch languages without much risk. They switch to X, and tomorrow they switch to Y. While it's very good to have low-risk early adopters, having so many of them can really give a false impression about long-term risk. At some point, you need to see many "long-term committers" making a switch.

Some people ask, but how can you have many long-term committers if these risk-averse people also look around for others like them? The answer is that usually this isn't the main factor. If some technology indeed makes a big bottom-line impact, there's a competitive risk in not adopting it (because your competitors will and then beat you in the market), which is why big-benefit technologies spread quickly.
