Are people really leaving CE just out of protest?

Many people would rather just feel some control over CE dying, rather than stick around to watch it slowly choke to death. It's a common coping mechanism
But they are killing it by leaving. If people didn't leave it wouldn't die.

That's what I'm asking. There's been nothing but bitching and moaning about CE "dying" and how there's going to be a mass exodus, but has anyone actually been able to drag themselves away? It seems like most people here are addicted to this place.
