... the reason is mostly legacy. All your libraries are written in fortran. Everyone learned fortran in the past and they don't want to switch.
As an example, I've seen physicists use fortran for parsing and transforming the output of a program. The cluster at our department has an awesomely updated ifort but no python2.7 (I think it has 2.2 or 2.3 or something). C++ isn't used directly either.
But yeah, there should have been fortran and some other languages there.
