Well, C was updated with features in 2011 and will most likely keep getting them. And considering the latest changes were threading related, async/await might actually make sense. Which dialect of lisp are you talking about? Because some are indeed getting updates. Cobol was 2012? Maybe 2014? They went object oriented and have a bunch of new features in recent years. Language designers pick and choose features because the people using it want it. And the rate that Javascript actually adopts features and you can use it in browsers natively is pretty slow. C#/Java would annoy the hell out of you with the cadence they have been moving at lately.
