Hi :) It's just a "just for fun" survey of what people think they use.
The modules can't be split up and removing any wouldn't reduce the code=base by much at all so the usual sinister hidden-agendas behind this sort of question are entirely absent. It's just for fun. For a lot of us this sort of thing is very difficult because answering would require us have really measured usage and give accurate answers rather than guesses. It's the type of question that neurotypicals and mainstream-press articles seem to enjoy but that are ultimately fairly pointless. It's just for fun and it's interesting to see people's estimates of what they do and to see how they handle giving answers to this sort of thing. http://musingsofanaspie.com/2013/01/10/what-is-neurotypical/ If we wanted a formal vote then there are various tools such as "Survey Monkey", or we could set-up something in LinuxQuestions.Org" or "Ask LO" or somewhere.
