My2c on the original question: Commons does a lot to discourage people from uploading to Commons. Everything from not allowing non-free formats (even automatically converted to free equivalents) to asking for cross-wiki uploads to be disabled and repeatedly proposing the same file for deletion is discouraging uploaders.
That's still anecdotical evidence I guess, but when one sees established users deliberately avoiding Commons because of these shortfalls one should probably take them seriously.
