I understand your misconceptions about this working. It really just depends on if it appears to be vulnerable enough to scanners, and whether people actually bother to take interest. I guess you could say that my "project" is more of and experiment in how hackers go about finding vulnerable devices. Who knows, maybe hackers don't take interest in vulnerable telnet services anymore (they probably don't), but thats okay, this was fun while it lasted. I'll leave the memes on the readme.
