Inertia is real, and institutions will always opt for circuitous rhetoric over policy reversal to avoid retcon'ing a longstanding inconsistency. GNU happens to be rather expert at this kind of casuistry. Without data, I agree with OP that if I were a Windows user, I imagine myself more inclined to stick with Windows if GNU offered a fully functioning emacs there (fortunately for GNU, it doesn't).
