Taylor Swift is very popular, therefore no one listens to anything but pop music. It's a very low effort argument.

Obviously such a pursuit is going to never be something 1/2 of people do, you need:

- space

- ambition

- aptitude

- money

- tolerance for huge amounts of frustration

- some ability and openness to learn rapidly

- enough time to devote to it

- a space to allow noisy things to run for hours

- the ability to acquire these things in your country

Those aspects filter out a great percentage of the population, of course this will never be "mainstream". VR goggles aren't mainstream, why would you expect someone wanting to make their own CNC cabinets (or whathaveyou) to be moreso?
