It looks to me that Walter's points aren't about convincing people to use 
it, but to show that you are using it, that there are customers.

Convincing people to use your language rarely works. If they needed a 
different language they would have found one. Funny thing is I like 
looking at different languages and so does my friend, but neither of us 
actually tried the other's language.
