Unfortunately, I think that's a lot of the instances in this list - they're essentially just marketing blurbs masquerading as polls. Postman's report is like that (API thought leaders are the ones that use Postman the most!), but the Datadog, Hashicorp, and other reports are similar - the conclusions are basically "you need to use our product to be good", e.g. Hashicorp's conclusion "More cloud-mature companies improved their business outcomes with respect to speed, risk, and efficiency." (Oh, and by the way, being "cloud mature" means using tools like Terraform).
Not saying the polls are necessarily invalid, but there is soooo much attempted BS "submarine marketing" these days that I think it's important to always consider the motivations of the source.
