What happened to D6 Legend?

I have always wondered why the D6 Legend variant is less popular than D6. Counting successes instead of summing up dice is much more elegant and faster at the table. It uses the same OGL, so it could have spawned a lot of games, but it didn't. I only know of MythicD6, which uses a very similar system but is not open.

A distilled version of it, like MiniSix for classic D6, could be fun to make. Does that exist, and I have just not seen it? I am perplexed that it is not talked about anymore. I mean, it is the system that powered the Xena TTRPG! It should be a great fit for many TTRPG folk like me. ( I know shitty Hercules is on the cover too, but can we agree on focusing on the fabulous and not the fascist?)
