I don't think your passive-aggressive way of arguing is leading to a productive discussion.. It is true that many people have very limited awareness about options available to them, and thus select the only tool they know. It doesn't mean that their choice is best for their tasks. It is just lack of awareness.

Not sure that “users are idiots” approach is better. That seems less than productive. Pros select the tools they need to do their job very intentionally and are likely extremely aware of the alternatives. If I spend 8 hours a day correcting and manipulating photos and choose photoshop as my tool of choice instead of latest random FOSS alternative that is a favorite of some dude who occasionally touches up a photo, my decision might have some weighted reasoning behind it. But hey, if you have something you feel is better, use it.
