It only shows that there are many development shops who have not migrated to a more powerful DVCS (either git or mercurial) and we ought to spread word about how inadequate centralized version control systems are.
I regularly run into dev shops (with code as the product!) that barely use "old style" VCS properly (e.g. CVS, SVN or TFS), and just refuse to look at git for a litany of reasons, largely boiling down to "our tools are magic, we are afraid of this new magic".
