This is an incredibly strange series of comments. OP simply stated that in his assessment from his use of the language (and the time it took him to learn it), that it isn't for everyone, and thus HE won't be spreading it. Notice he doesn't speak about preventing other people from spreading it or anything of the like, he's simply making a personal decision of what he will evangelize.
You have to be in a uniquely defensive mindset to cast this reasoning, a reasoning we ALL have to do eventually given limited time, as "arrogant". I personally think learning assembly is not worth most people's time. If I were to teach a web programming class I might choose to skip assembly. Can I be sure that people wouldn't get something out of it? Of course not. Is it "arrogant" of me to assume that people will find it hard and it is not the best use of their time, no, thats ridiculous. There are more topics than time, so its fine for me to choose what I believe is most helpful to other people to preach about.
