Because it doesn't run on the JVM.

For a variety of reasons — including critical third-party libraries — anything that doesn't run on the JVM and interoperate with legacy Java code is just a non starter for my company. I suspect many other organizations are in a similar situation. It looks like someone is working on a JVM port now so hopefully we'll see something usable in a few years.

It's under consideration, among other options.
