What is wrong with PiEEG – is it another ADS1299 demo which hardly anyone tests or uses?

The combination of a Texas Instruments ADS1299 EEG chip with a Raspberry Pi single board computer would be in principle be superior to the 10 year old OpenBCI architecture. But all the same, hardly anyone seems to buy PiEEG:

Why does hardly anyone buy PiEEG? The only function of proof of PiEEG we know is Ildar Rakhmatulin s Robot toy:

What is wrong with PiEEG – does it have issues? PiEEG recently said they are working on the next generation of PiEEG. But PiEEG does not offer a better variant of PiEEG which eventually would be taken over also by www.openbci.com or www.petergamma.org.

Instead PiEEG shows a variant with 16 EEG channels:

Since years demo after demo with the ADS1299 EEG chip from Ti appear on the market which seems as if it was made especially for Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org. And with each of these demos, products based on InfluxDB and single electronic components become more interesting also for a physiologist like Peter. So are you the last one who uses the ADS1299?
