You may have a point regarding post formats being for a small subset of WordPress users. I'm a recent tumblr transplant and tried out dozens of WordPress themes until I finally settled on one that supports post formats (there are actually a few that I like that support post formats)… just because it made the most sense for my type of content - images, audio, quotes, etc. I have no interest in the traditional blog structure at this point. Not sure how many others are like me, but I do appreciate the development of themes with post formats.
