I really can't speak for anyone else.  I don't
expect that there are lots of people in my
situation.

On the other hand, I imagine there are lots of
developers who use whatever Emacs version is
available already built in the version of
Linux their company uses.  I saw a lot of Emacs
21 for years afterward, when they could have
built 24.x or even 25.x.

The number of Emacs users, is, I expect, far
larger than the number of Emacs aficionados
who frequent Emacs mailing lists, sites, and
Q&A sites.  Lots of users just use it to do
their work.
