Well...at least two of them, to my certain personal knowledge, have
been expert Emacs users in the past. (I'm thinking of David and Cyndy
Matuszek, in case anyone here has ever met them.)
They're not fashionistas. They have a belief, which is not badly founded
given the evidence available to them, that the Emacs project is old,
tired, badly run, and effectively moribund.
I can't say that I blame them much for this. We have a lot of work to
do to re-establish the level of credibility we enjoyed at the time I
was last directly involved in the early 1990s.
