Because it hasn't.
There are languages out there, for instance, that support "design by
contract", which was first mentioned no more than 23 years ago.
Aspect-oriented programming languages haven't been around for longer
than 8 years.
But I guess the most pressing problem computer languages need to address
is multiprocessing. At present, the number of languages /natively/
supporting multithreading (let alone distributed computing) is rather
limited, while target platforms are already starting to enter consumer
households on a large scale.
