The most likely cause of its niche nature is its acknowledgement of objectively higher consciousness modes of being, or that fact that certain stages are more advanced. So, all of Tier 1, or +99% of the population, would be considered "inferior" to stages they potentially detest. E.g, Orange would become upset that the hippie tree-huggers in Green are above them, as well as the airy fairy Turquoise.

My SO is Yellow, while I am mainly Orange, with some Blue/Green. We're both highly invested in Spiral Dynamics. He is deeply creative and knowledgeable. When I have any sort of problem, ranging from minor annoyances to large flaws hindering my development, he is attentive to helping me get through my struggles. He greatly energizes me with pragmatic motivation to work on my problems. He engages in a myriad of spiritual practices, such as physical/mindfulness exercises, meditation, and fasting. But while he is not cold with me, he may fall into overanalysis and criticize my behaviors too harshly. He can also become emotional and neglect his other responsibilities. Though as of recently, we have worked to channel his observational skills into a more productive form.
