Maybe it is because they don't have enough appearence in the show.[/bq]



 
In the early seasons, when the show had just started, bronies didn't have issues with catching on ponies and creating lots of art for them.
 
It's more that for some reason, most artists and authors can't let go of the older background ponies, not even partially, so they mostly ignore new background ponies, no matter how interesting they are.
 
I noticed that already during Season 4 with Chirpy Hooves. Excepected that she would get a lot of art because of her obvious similarity with Derpy and some quite intriguing details in her appearance that allow to draw conclusions about her life, but it was for her already the same like it's now for Lily Longsocks and artist/authors barely cared about her.


 
I hate it to say it, cause I still like them, but the older background ponies have become mainstream.
 
If the fandom wants to keep up its creative level, it has to be more daring and tackle art and stories for new background ponies.
