Aside: would've been neat to see a "version control by OS" pie chart for GNU/Linux.

This mostly seems to be because of its performance.
Having used git and bzr extensively (and a bit of mercurial), I've found it's performance to be perfectly fine for general use on reasonably sized projects, and the ease-of-use to be far superior. Figuring out how to get Bazaar to do something you haven't done before is much easier than trying to track down a Git feature. Although I will admit that Git is improving in this regard, while Bazaar continues to improve it's performance and focus on interoperability.
Anyway, in summary: I really don't get why more people aren't using Bazaar.
* Emacs uses Bazaar for "branding" reasons IIRC.
If the survey was done badly, with an 'other' option with no way to write in what you use, then potentially all of the 'other' block could be bzr. It would just be left out by the survey writer not having heard of it.
