Why is it vital? What does it add to life, the universe, or anything?
Almost no-one in the world has any significance. Of the 7 billion people alive today, 6,990,000 of them will be utterly forgotten in 200 years time. It will be as if they didn't exist.
Why is one extremely niche language so important compared to those 6,990,000 actual, real life, people? It happened, it had no impact on human history, it was forgotten.
End of story, stop making a big deal about it. History is for the meaningful, not the things that wouldn't even make the minor footnotes.
