This is simply not true (depending on precisely what you mean by
"serious"). These days, many popular, important, and very relevant-to-users
packages are written in other languages than C/C++ (Java/Python, just to
name two). Please, let's not start disparaging packages written on other
languages as "not serious software". I don't think that's going to be very
productive.
