Rarely is the law interested in something like "most popular use case", or a mere plurality. There are different standards for different circumstances, but usually it's something like substantial noninfringing uses, like in Sony's famous Betamax case.
This example is from left field, but the reason I bring it up is that no court will want to know what a plurality of Tor users do with Tor. The standard is probably much lower than that.
Given this, what is probably more interesting is to catalogue different legitimate use cases for Tor. Then cite actual examples of real people using Tor in these fashions, and how their freedoms would be infringed if they could not use Tor.
For example, I use Tor regularly to see how web pages render for people other than myself. It allows me to check how personalized a website has been made for me. Especially with ads, if I want to guess at how targetted ads are to me, I can use Tor for comparison.
