Dude, I think everybody that read this and has interest probably understands the life cycle of a product like this. For the general user ... this is a hackers play ground of learning, but for people into Telemetry, industrialization and automation and robotics? Yes, this is going to be useful, if not as a whole, than some piece of technology that falls out of it.

Assembly language programmers are a group unto themselves and many of them are duel or triple discipline such as a mechanical+electronic+programmer.

Think of them as modern day tinker’s.

I understand completely. I have written tons of ASM for embedded systems; however, that was many years ago. Today, with pipelining processors, it’s no longer possible to write the fastest code by hand. Menuet is a cool, fun project for the people tinkering with it, but the technique behind its development is no longer relevant with modern computers.
