how come technical progress comes with such discrepancies?

It's because water is easy to use, has a convenient steam/water transition temperature, and has a very high specific energy (i.e. it holds a lot of energy). There are other possibilities like molten metal or salts but they have other challenges.

Supercritical CO2 can be more efficient and compact. It is possible to convert nuclear energy directly to electricity. Although it's very difficult to do this with fission.

machines using the rankine cycle have the most power density and a good overall efficiency
a 1500MW rotor uses less space than a football penalty area
nothing comes close to this
water steam rankine cycle has become so good after decades of improvements, that S.C. CO2 will struggle to achieve economies of scale

It is about culture. Steam engines saw a brief period of intense work, then it stagnated. CPU architecture saw 5 years of white hot intensity development, now it is fossilised. It has been like this for over 200 years. There are no indications it will change in the foreseeable future.
