I think it boils down to, java has a lot of ceremony, which is designed to improve stability. I think this makes code bases more complex, and gives it the reputation it has.

I'm not a java programmer, but I like it more because python and js projects are often very messy

Yeah, that's my experience too. I think once projects get to a certain size, you really reap the benefits of strong opinions, regardless if what those opinions are.
