No, that is your thought process that programming languages are meant to be productive. The person who creates, does so in many instances because they feel they want to create.
Which is why there is an order of magnitude more super-little-known programming languages out there than the ones that dominate the professional world of programming.
A few languages get traction and grow. Rest are just creations from someone.

However when you start promoting a language and lure other people in contributing into your community, that (should) stops. Unless you specifically say smt like "this is a programming language for goofing around nothing serious", which is no PL author's pitch ever.
