I did the same observation some time ago. I think it's a great shame
because as a programming language Scheme is far superior to Elisp
(except maybe when it comes to execution speed). Elisp is bad at
information hiding (no file scope) and provides no local procedures,
which encourages programmers to write gigantic functions that are hard
to maintain. I would like to see GNU Emacs switch to Guile/Scheme
completely.
