> The survey wants to see how existing users use Emacs, not how to make Emacs accessible to new users.

From the survey:

> Which editor did you use before you started using Emacs?

> Can you recall any difficulties you faced when initially learning Emacs?

> How were you introduced to Emacs?

> Which features motivated you to initially try Emacs?

It very clearly looks like the people behind the survey are interested in what aspects of Emacs helped it acquire and retain a user.
