That's seriously a tiny drop in the bucket in terms of total internet usage.
That's only because most internet users don't even know what a domain is.
Then why would they care if the domain is .org, .com, or .xyz?

This whole concern sounds like a tempest in a teapot.

It matters, because large scale domain migration would have very serious consequences for users even if they didn't know what a domain is.
