Because those morons who compare Hindi don't even know about the existence of Hindi.

Ignoramuses. Don't know that Lithuanian is much closer to Sanskrit than Russian. And so want mystery and romance.

It makes sense to compare a child to his parents, not to his younger brothers. Since Sanskrit, brain volume has decreased quite sensitively, especially in regions with warm winters. Accordingly, languages have become simpler. Some more, others less. In addition to releasing the emotional ancient complexities of numerous verb tenses, mooing, . there has been a saturation of languages with technological terms. And also some less, others more For example, the chimpanzee is the brother of man. But it is much more useful for science to compare humans not with chimpanzees, but with their common ancestor, who was probably slightly smarter than chimpanzees

Sanskrit, you see, is more complex: grammatically. Plus it's the language of ancient wisdom well, sort of. Hence the comparison to it is kind of more solid. Hindi, on the other hand, doesn't have any particularly striking features and attracts less attention.
