If somebody asked why Hypothetical Dave opened a bakery and Dave answered "So this town would have a source of bread," I think it would be reasonable to find that strange. He isn't explicitly saying nobody has done it before, but the answer is weird if it's already been done. I mean, creating an unnecessary programming language isn't strange — it's extremely common, and some are even good. But providing a rationale for creating the language that doesn't explain why you created the language is a bit odd, isn't it?
