It's not just blogging. For example, the Whitehouse uses WordPress for its site. Nasa uses it on some of their sites as does the National Archives. On the commercial side you have The New Yorker, BBC America, Sony, Disney, Facebook and Bloomberg all using it in some capacity. There are many more of course, but that should give you an idea.

So, while you're right - online publishing doesn't have popular mindshare - it is a massive part of the online economy.

I'm not saying that qualifies WP for anti-trust investigation, but your underlying premise that WordPress is irrelevant is not congruent with reality.

I’ve worked on a good number of WordPress sites for several Very Big Companies and not one of them was a blog in any sense.

From an internal tablet tool for sales reps, to the entire help system for an MS product that got translated into iirc about 100 languages, to a shareable library of B2B solutions, I’ve not once worked on a WP project that was a blog.
