I don't understand this remark. When you talk about "the language used
to implement emacs" are you talking about C or elisp?
C, of course.

What is the LibreOffice extension language that is "almost the same"?
Can you provide a link?
LibreOffice is written in C++.  And it is programmable, by virtue of its
nature as a computer program.

Scriptable programs have their specific challenges, so it's helpful to look at architectures suited to that.

Anyway, I stand corrected, LibreOffice is actually quite scriptable (in Java, Python and others): https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/DevGuide/Scripting_Framework

Though probably not to the extent that Emacs is.
