In my experience this's wrong.
Most people use e-mail, browser and {what you do}.
{what you do} is the program they use for the answer on the question "What do you do?".
Many answers can be given to this question, such as:
gaming: games
statistics: IBM SPSS
geometry: Wolfram
Managing: e-mail
engineering: autocad
Editing: MS word
etc.
Everybody does something, but they all do something different.
This's primarily where the value of a software ecosystem lies.
Having said that under the crushing weight of the many forces that drive open source development many of the ecosystem begins to become truly useful.
Right now it lies at silver level(on the winedb scale).
Most of <what you do> is now useful after or before some tinkering.
Yet winedb gold or platinum with a >tier 2 click play rating is needed to be truly competitive on the desktop market.
