Not at all! It's great when a language (or anything) gets an active community that's working to identify and ameliorate its pain points.

My point is that these occasionally break out of their bubbles and become more "mainstream" than you might expect from the raw population-of-interest numbers. It's not all that uncommon (e.g. for a while there were more "how I cope with the difficulties that come from living off grid" stories out there than "how to live off grid" or even "why live off grid?") but I still find it noteworthy.
