Yeah but that wasn't the context the person you were responding to was using it in. By your own example, Nirvana doesn't make any sense as they were tremendously successful doing their thing

Oh, it certainly is the context. Nirvana had its beginnings and appeal by being uninterested in success and only played to a niche as "their" group. When Nirvana suddenly became wildly successful, that group felt betrayed.

Nirvana is the perfect example of what I was talking about.

Yeah, what you were talking about... not what the other poster was talking about. Try to read and understand other's posts.
