I think that's a perfectly good point. The ZSF wants to build momentum and have the language take off. We also are looking for money in order to pay core contributors. I can also share that my own role at the ZSF has as ultimate goal of increasing the total amount of effort spent on Zig. The core problem with what kristate is doing is that, in a moment where the Zig community needs community members to take initiative and build things around Zig, and where likewise there's a tremendous potential for those individuals to capture a good chunk of value for themselves, all while making the pie bigger, he instead chose to cut a slice and run away with it for what amounts to pure vanity. Right now we are trying to encourage people to start thinking about building a business around Zig, be it programming in Zig, or writing a Zig programming book, or whatever. I personally started https://zig.show before coming on board and I plan for my own, independent, Zig-related activity to become my main source of income one day. If you add on top of that, that the guy creating this useless fork has a history of offering a free wifi service that steals personal information and rewrites amazon affiliate links, then you can see why we want to put as much distance as we can.
