Not really least-bad, probably just most unique. Almost every other style stops and resets after someone hits the ground, so BJJ went where the others didn't.

It was the same as Ronda Rousey dominating women's matches when that section of the UFC started up. It doesn't mean that Judo is "better" than the other styles, the other competitors simply didn't know what to do with it, and now they do.
It certainly has parallels to trendy new software engineering styles "dominating" the field, though I'm not sure they lead to any more real "victories" compared to actual combat. Just because the time runs out on a software project doesn't mean that anybody actually won.
