I’m not so sure. There are less than 60,000 Scots Gaelic speakers in Scotland and they’re all out on the islands. In contrast there are nearly 1 million Welsh speakers and well over a million Irish speakers. The Scots are either not too bothered by their revival or they’re trying to pass off their regional English dialect as a native tongue to craft a more low effort revival for themselves.
