You are not users, Paul. You are a user. Singular noun, not a plural noun.

Besides, you conveniently ignored the part where I list the kind of
pro users who love the new behaviour. Of course, they don't support
your opinion, so they should be dismissed. Is that what's happening?
You tell me :)

It's amazing that there are people who actually believe that. What's
next? "Great product doesn't need advertizing"?

There are all sorts of reasons the vast majority of anybody doesn't do
something. Picking one single reason and claiming it's _the_ reason is
an insult to intelligence.
