Of course it would be better off, but you can say that for a lot of places / a lot of languages.

I lived in Tanzania for a couple years and learned a bit of swahili and the lack of online resources is a huge barrier for education. If you only know Swahili, the world is very small.

There is a Swahili course on Duolingo now. I didn't try it yet, but usually the Duolingo courses are the best for the parts they cover.
