In over 15 years of experience, for multiple companies, over 50% of the
projects I worked on either had to run on multiple platforms or were
subsequently ported to another platform.  This doesn't suggest anything
to you about the nature of the industry segment where Ada plays a major
role?

Of course if you compare the number of such projects to the universe
ofsoftware development projects undertaken (which includes Windows
applications), then even Unix programs become "A miniscule subset of the
vast number of software development projects undertaken".
