Definitely!
IMHO, it should me enough that there is one user with enough interest to
actually do the work, submit it and - hopefully - maintain it for a
while.
In addition,
- each supported device serves as a template and example for
similar devices, simplifying support for other products.
- OpenWrt support is good for the environment by increasing the usable
lifetime of a device
- you can still buy this device new, despite the EoL announcement
