Implicitly, among programmers/software engineers and perhaps software-related
managers, I suppose. But this isn't the only possible audience for popularity,
even for programming languages.

Just as relatively few people fly airplanes as airline or military pilots or
pilots for other services. But quite enough people depend on that flying and
its safety and effectiveness.
Even in avaiation world there are different kinds of popularity - for example,
both Boeing and Cessna are certainly quite popular. And probably much more
people fly Cessnas, but does it mean that Cessna is generally more popular
than Boeing?

Don't you know that a plane cannot fly before the weight of its documentation
exceeds its own weight? -:)
