Python is a memory and typesafe language.

Also, AWS is 10 years older than Rust, and C# only runs on Windows (at least it certainly only did when AWS was created, and is laughably more difficult to get running on Linux or OSX than Python).

That may work now, but it didn't exist when AWS was started.
