What you like or don't like isn't really the point. The point is that it isn't unimportant when judging how "good" a language is to take into account how many people are willing to use it. It is hard to argue that a language is "good" when a negligible fraction of developers are willing to use it.

As Alan Kay said, the industry is a pop culture, driven by marketing not science. I'm still going to argue for good ideas though.

If one is to come up with an excuse for not understanding people, one should pick something that at least sounds plausible.
