I don't disagree with you on the *range* of the distribution of Emacs
users; I disagree with you on the *location* of the main weight of the
distribution. Examples speak to the question of range, but I already
gave my own regarding the two extremes. And as I already pointed out, there
are people who
should have better information about location than either of us: the
maintainers.

I don't consider myself a hardcore programmer. What makes you think I
am? I simply have a broad range of interests, and digging into code
is one of them. Writing code is not something I have much time for on
a regular basis, unfortunately. My contributions are mostly in the
line of review, documentation, standards-mongering, and release
management.

I agree with that, who wouldn't? But that's not what you wrote
before, and it doesn't help with the question of setting good
defaults.
