Lets see if it actually happens and then if they can manage to even get the network online first. if those 2 things actually happen then im sure there would be support to mine it.

personally i do not see both happening. maybe yobit trades a crap ton of futures and maybe even makes a ton of money in trades in the mean time, but til we have something to mine its just crap.

If it comes online, we'll be glad to offer it - but not immediately, since we would need to purchase and install more hardware given that it's yet another copy of the entire bitcoin blockchain.

The developers of these coins need to understand that by starting from the bitcoin blockchain, they create enormous hardware requirements to store all that data. For one coin, it's easy; for 10 forks, it starts to add up in costs.

That implies that it'll be a more profitable coin then all other x11 coins currently.

It'll be effectively new, don't expect it to be more profitable then the highest profitable coin on x11 currently.
