I think that's true of most popular nonfiction. It gets less true fast as you move into more-serious writing and genres.
But, to be fair, that crappy airport-nonfiction self-help/lazy-(auto)biography/pop-business/pop-hustle-science almalgam-genre may well be most of the non-fiction that people actually read.
