Why Is Nobody Studying Klingon?

Doing research for the recent Scientific American Mind article, I found out that Klingon uses the incredibly rare object-verb-subject (OVS) word order. Even though some languages (like Russian) allow relatively free word-order, all languages seem to have a preferred order. There are 6 possible. The most common are SVO (English), SOV (Japanese), VSO (Classical Arabic). The 3 orders that put the object before the subject are relatively rare, with OVS nearly non-existent. It does appear occasionally in poetry or other marked uses (The drink drank I), and is claimed to be the dominant word order in at least two extremely rare languages: Guarijio and Hixkaryana. Given the degree of debate over how to correctly characterize syntax in well-studied languages like English, I'm always maintain some skepticism about rare, poorly-studied languages (and the sad truth is that all languages are poorly-studied when compared to English).

In any case, if one wanted to study the acquisition of Guarijio or Hixkaryana, one would need a decent travel budget and some infrastructure. Klingon is spoken closer to home. Yet I couldn't find any papers in Google Scholar looking at the acquisition of Klingon, even from a sociological perspective. This seems under-studied.
