Kickstarter will promote anything that has the chance to make it big. Their only goal is to make sure most pledged dollars go towards ultimately funded projects, and that hype and funding grow in them to the maximum extent possible. Documentaries and so on, that's another story, I guess their cash cow are non-art projects while what they enjoy are art projects. So don't expect a tech project to undergo minimally rigorous analysis if it looks like it will make it big. They only question your project to the extent it could be a waste of real estate in their website for not getting funded.
