If an algorithm exists and is easy to implement in hashcat, then if it was rare, I can see the main developers not wanting to implement it themselves. But I would want to be open to accepting good PRs that implement it.
And for legacy hash types for zip/archive/etc specifically, it's not like if 7z got replaced with EvenBetterZ someday that we wouldn't continue to need to recover passwords from older archives. The archives - and therefore the potential need to recover them - will persist long after the software stops being actively used.
