I think Perl's growth happened at a time where "fitting in an environment" was the obvious thing to do. One data point? POD has as one of its main targets man pages.
Python (re- [1]) started a trend which I'll call "language monotheism", where each language had (or thought it had) to fight for absolute dominance. I think this might be something for computer sociologists to study some day.
[1] Not the first round, mind you. Older people might remember C vs Pascal, quiche eaters and that. Of course, nowadays, in the era of overabundance, survival and money are more at stake than back then.
