I think it's a combination of 1) the expressiveness measure is too simplistic, measuring number of lines alone, or counting comments, and 2) the problem set is skewed toward number-crunching, which is not (say) Prolog's strong suit.
Also there is a strong tendency to optimise the code for performance rather than conciseness (concision?). In the past this tended to bloat (e.g.) Haskell entries as simple intuitive code was replaced by arrays of unboxed integers and similar C-like constructs.
