In my very own and personal opinion, Tcl is the single reason why MacPorts doesn't get as many external contributions as it should and is therefore so awfully slow to evolve. I have tried to dive in the MacPorts sources many times, read the Welch book, yadda yadda, and I still can't get past 3 or 4 lines of Tcl without giving up in disgust. Ok, maybe that's just me but still...
Maybe, but it was at least a sensible choice when the project was started and it's probably unreasonable to switch to something else given that we have over 3,702 ports (which are really just tcl programs).
