how do you judge that peercoin and dogecoin don't work out?

They seem to have been the "next big" currency for market cap after BTC and LTC for the last 9 months, which would point in the direction of, at least, inflationary nature not being such a big deal.

They are talked about because Bitcoin is talked about. Their value is ridiculously low compared to BTC's.

Their value is ridiculously low compared to BTC's, but they're also years younger than BTC. We have no basis for saying yet whether they'll work out.
