ITs for the reasons I said before.

Miku kinda has so many songs that people either want to and like to see different vocaloids used. But it becomes a catch-22 situation, wherein that while you use other Vocaloids... That may not bring in the views due to their obscurity. Therefore, Miku is more likely to bring in views, or so it may seem. She gets so many songs, however, that though she gets more views they are widespread compared to other vocaloids. When a song does take off, boy does it, more then any other vocaloid. But you have to draw the Miku fans in and when their widespread... IT either has the effect of a large net wherein news of a song spreads quickly due to a larger network, or it gets ignore because the net hasn't got the strength to reel in the song.

For a Vocaloid like Big Al, he may not get a lot of views, but back in V2 you were more certain to get a lot of the fans of him viewing that 1 video uploaded that day. So it was an easier 3,000 views by the end of the month.

The net, has also the draw as well as a large catchment area it has a lot amount of catchment for trolls and haters, so that's yet another draw back.

Either way, I'm not saying its wrong to like or dislike her, but I do understand why it all happens. Miku's been so popular that after 10 years, there is a lot of fans who are bored of her and sick of the cycle being repeated, particularly overseas fans who don't have the link that the Japanese fans have with her. The trouble is the next most popular vocaloids are mostly from CFM or internet with IA and Yuari splashed in between. In other words, we're divided even further on our views of the other vocaloids, to the point wherein Miku's popularity is something that is solid.

The problem with this is... Well... If it falls, its the size of a tower and it will take a lot of Vocaloid with it. So I understand why she is always being pushed, because she has to keep her grounds, this is kinda why we have English and Chinese Miku... New markets means its harder for that tower to fall. :-/
