It's true though. Warhammer Fantasy is almost entirely contained within the ttrpg scene now.
E) Warhammer Fantasy Battle is from 1983 not the 90's. GW was founded in 75. "Warhammer" was a ruleset GW created to allow you to play all of the different miniature lines they were selling at the time in one battlefield; so that regardless of what game you were purchasing miniatures for, you could use them at a table for a game.
I think that an aspect missing from your analysis is Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 1st edition is from 86 and Rogue Trader 1st edition is from 87. There has always been this subset of Warhammer fans that acts as a generally more pleasant foil to the tabletop wargamer. This is where alot of the finer lore and setting actually gets fleshed out outside of the army list text box and faction descriptions.
