Genuine question: why js?

Why not something like c#: native, fast, crossplatform, strongly-typed, great tooling, supports both scripting (ie single file-based) and compiled to a binary with no dependency whatsoever (nativeAOT), great errors and error stacks, list goes on.

All great for AI to recover during its iterations of generating something useful.

Genuinely perplexed.

Same reason AIs also use Python and DBMSes offer JS or Py UDFs easily, interpreted languages take no build time and are more portable. JS is also very popular.

Might also be a context window thing. Idk how much boilerplate C# has, but others like Java spam it.
