It’s not that you want to switch. It’s that you wouldn’t care if you did.

If what you have now works for you, there's no point in switching (especially just because someone on the Internet said so).

Oh, I completely agree. I do not switch because I want to, but because I have to.

Not sure if you’re kidding, but if not – why would users switch in the first place, if that means abysmal performance?

Seems like it. And the primary reason I haven't switched. Seems like a huge hassle and offers no advantages to me.

Switching to something else puts them out of sync with everybody else who didn't. Same for anybody else. There is no possibility of "switching". Suggesting otherwise only proves you don't understand what this is even about.

High switching costs + nothing compelling enough to move to a competitor for.
