True. (And I didn't think of prices.)
As Randy has explained, interfaces are quite important when it
comes to a decision for using this or that program. Sometimes there is
also a prestige/status issue which is technically not relevant but
it drives decisions. There are peer groups of program users influencing
decision making etc etc etc. Not always the most desirable factors
in decision making, at least from some perspectives.
