Nobody's arguing that GitHub shouldn't prioritize popular languages. I don't think that the responses to this pull request show 'prioritization' however, they show incompetence and close-mindedness instead.

More likely a lack of time. If you'd like to see it fixed, start contributing to the fix.

A lack of time doesn't cause problems with multiple languages that only use the trivial ".m" extension. Bad design does.

Luckily I use languages popular enough to be classified correctly.
