So, do you stop rooting for your favourite sports team because they can't be world champion? Do you not support a small artist you like because he won't ever be as big as van Gogh?
Like, will desktop Linux overtake Windows anytime soon in market share? No. Do I use Linux on all my machines? Yes. Does that mean I'm not allowed to like it / hope for more adoption or hell, help people who would like to get away from Windows?
I get your point and I mostly agree. But why exactly should that be an argument for people to stop liking / improving something that's objectively got more future?
Wait until you learn how big van Gogh was during his life...
