it has almost run out of features to steal

There is still one big feature, waiting to be added to C#. Discriminated unions. Come on Microsoft, it can't be that hard to implement

That's true. You can kind of do it Scala style with an interfaces and some classes, but with two big drawbacks: no exhaustiveness checking, and no "object" syntax for defining singleton classes. They seem to be heading in that direction though.
