Just to nitpick, it's from "pick nits", as in, remove lice eggs from
your hair. No criticism implied; I thought you might want to know ...
and if "niche" was an intentional pun, it's a good one.

The theme system was created with the intention of giving users a way
to turn complicated prompts on and off, so that they could try out
different appearances without having to repeatedly edit their config
files and restart their shell.
Some of the themes are simple enough that they really could just be
copied into the user's init file. Others (like, well, "prompt bart")
install a bunch of helpers, allow you to plug in your own color
scheme, etc. Unsurprisingly, I use "prompt bart" and give it a
different set of colors on hosts with different purposes or
identities. I find things like using different border or background
colors to be too distracting/jarring; coloring the prompt is
sufficient.
