That's exactly why it shouldn't become popular because it's easy-to-use.
If something becomes popular because it's efficient (git), or has some beautiful core logic (pijul), or because it supports well-integrated workflows (fossil), then it will eventually be that and easy-to-use.
If something becomes popular because it's easy-to-use but sucks in every other way, then we are stuck dealing with it for another 30 years.
