Already seen this. I'm inclined to take it with a pound of salt, for
several reasons:
- Have you participated in it? I'm a heavy SO user, and I've only found
out about it after the results were published. So, a certain amount of
bias has to be assumed.
- If the question was "what do you personally prefer", it doesn't
necessarily reflect the state of the projects the surveyees are actually
working on.
- For all we know, the majority of respondents came from PHP, VB.NET, or
some other proprietary platforms which Emacs does not support directly.

Some of the less experienced ones might also be answering a different
question. Look at the subscript (in brackets) here:
