I just have a few comments on the questions,
Maybe we should have a "none" option in "** Which languages do you
program (in Emacs) in? :MultiSelect:Mandatory:"? I don't really use
Emacs to program except in Elisp and an occasional shell script or two.
I suspect there might be people who exclusively use it for
non-programming purposes.
A nit: in "** Do you use a terminal emulator in Emacs?
:MultiSelect:Mandatory:", you have shell and eshell as options but they
aren't terminal emulators are they?
"** Do you use a spell checker in Emacs? :RadioSelect:Mandatory:":
I think you should add ispell (M-$) to the list as well.
"** Do you use any selection packages? :MultiSelect:Mandatory:":
Marginalia is not a selection package, I think the same goes for
consult? Perhaps, users of those packages can comment on this.
