I think it is a fine way to BUILD a community - but it's building a 
community that matches a certain demographic.

It's like marketing features, if your features can be handled for a 
particular demographic then that's the community you build.

I think what you're saying is "it's not a very good way to build a 
community of EVERYONE" but it is not obvious to me that:

1. we want everyone
2. we can come up with a way to target everyone.
