I understand your position, though I consider it somewhat unfortunate. Too many text MUDs focus only on attracting players from existing text MUDs. There's certainly good reason to do that, but it'd be nice to see more text MUDs actively trying to bring new people into text MUDing as well.
I think you are drastically underestimating the hurdle that a text-based interface presents. I know many people with decent reading comprehension and more than a little common sense who have tried text MUDs, even ones targetting non-MUDers such as the IRE MUDs, and just given up.
Learning to use an interface is rarely the fun part of a game.
