Same reason Android and Chrome and git and Linux weren't written in Rust when they started. Rust didn't exist. All of these projects integrate Rust now, after being single language projects for the longest time. It's notable

Zig is what you want to write, because it gets out of the way. Rust is what you want your colleagues to write, to enforce good practices and minimise bugs. It's also what I want my past self to have written, because that guy is always
