I understood that. Yet you're here and you're familiar with IE6 situation. You know that while it might have looked like developers only ones who got hurt by that situation, actually everyone, including regular web users were hurt. As many hours were spent just to provide support for IE rather than creating something more useful. In other cases support for IE was dropped, which hurt users IE right away. I provided developers view, so that you could see how regular web user choice makes an impact to the whole industry.
