I get what you're saying. I thought that myself, that it would be niche. Then I got it and now it's part of my standard carry. I think the tricky thing about it is that it doesn't do anything surprising, so you wouldn't expect that it would be so successful. But once you try it yourself, you realize that the appeal is primarily in how balanced and versatile it is. In other words, it doesn't do anything new, but it does everything that it tries to do very well
