Um, obviously a lot of people. Lightning is ten years old. People have ten years' worth of docks and cables and specialized accessories.
Another thing most mindless USB-C promoters aren't aware of is, the Lightning port is significantly smaller than a USB-C port. Moving to USB-C would mean that the most vulnerable part of the metal iPhone frame, which is the area surrounding the charging port, would be significantly thinner.
This is in addition to the connector itself also being more fragile.
There's just not a good enough reason to change ports. If there were, Apple would have changed it already, like they did for the iPad eventually.
