I feel proponents of any programming language put a lot of spin around what isolated aspects it is good for, but fail to illustrate what a programmer in even one target domain gains from using it.

Are there programming language implementations unlike what is described above, that you feel back up their marketing?

Boost is too monolithic to be useful. I am not surprised it has redundant functionality. Get the great parts of Boost like asio separately.
