Again.. this isn't really a direct comparison to make. Sure there are varieties of rice (white, brown, jasmine, etc).. but they are all rice at the end of the day. Pasta comes in ridiculous types of forms, some of which are even made with vegetables and even ink (oh god, black squid ink pasta.. yum). There's a huge difference between orzo and, say, lasagna.

I won't even get into the fact that it isn't always a grain either (sup gnocchi, much love for ya fam) or can be stuffed (ohhhh manicotti or tortellini).
