Probably because they're invented languages and their proponents are more
than a bit defensive of their obscession. Epsecially the Klingon
'speakers'. Sorry, it's a spin-off of a TV show; anyone who claims it's
their 'native language' needs therapy.

Ya know, being a linguist, and having actually studied several years
of Latin, I was trying to be nice and let that one go. It was minor.
No surprise that someone noticed it.

What still impresses me the most is when a person writes a minor
mistake in Klingon or Esperanto, and *that* gets corrected.
