I'm pretty sure there's no one with an encyclopaedic knowledge of programming languages. The industry is enormous, and just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean that it's irrelevant. "Niche" is not the same as "irrelevant".
And even if it WAS irrelevant and only important to a very small number of people, that doesn't mean it can be ignored.
