I think developers are users for sure, but not all users are developers. There's also a large corporate wing of users for node. Huge companies like Walmart and Netflix who are invested in the technology and want to see Node.js develop in a certain way to their advantage. At the end of the day, there's money to be made in the technology somehow. And this isn't to say it's a bad thing at all. Stakeholders of node.js isn't just developers at this point.
