It's not only the amount of code but also the quality of the available code. If a language has a low barrier to entry (e.g. python, javascript), there will be a lot of beginner code. If a language has good static analysis and type checking, the available code is free of certain error classes (e.g. Rust, Scala, Haskell).

I see that difference in llm generated code when switching languages. Generated rust code has a much higher quality than python code for example.
