Well, I've invested enough into ColdFusion (and Allaire during my Team Allaire days) to where I can complain. I made a concerted effort to learn their product, evangelize the benefits of CF and continue to evolve with it. At the very least, I would expect MM to invest some marketing effort into it.
To be more direct, anyone that's invested time and effort into making CF a core part of their professional career has a right to complain. In terms of this thread getting a bit off topic, you're right and it should probably be moved to CF-Community.
