> I would estimate that the job openings that use those languages at less that one half of one percent. Skim the monthly "Who's hiring?" posts here on HN if you'd like to confirm it.

That's about 15% (14.94% if you want to be precise), so you're off by a factor of thirty. [0] https://kennytilton.github.io/whoishiring/ https://kennytilton.github.io/whoishiring/
