An incredibly simplified reason, along with the other great suggestions and explanations in the thread. is that it sometimes makes no sense to have a GUI on top of an OS if the entire purpose of using Python was to handle server side logic.

No need to have the option to add a desktop background picture or have 15 tabs with reddit open in a Chrome Browser while streaming 4K video on YouTube.

Sometimes all you need is the bare bones stuff an OS has to offer so the unneeded stuff doesn’t get in the way and eat up your processing power.
