So your headline should have been "Think your language is more popular than mine: The market says otherwise".

No one would have argued with that.

I agree. The title is misleading. I'll have to be more careful on future HN posts. Although, if someone else posted it I would have little control over that.

I don't think your alternative isn't quite right either.

Perhaps, I should have just titled it something like: "Ask HN: Review my theory, The Free-Market Theory of Programming Languages"
