That 5% is 5% of the users who don't turn the telemetry off.
And if use of that feature is strongly correlated with the type of person who also turns off telemetry...

That would just make it 5% of a vast majority, nearing 100%,, so still only a small amount of users.
I get what you're saying, but when something is only used by the small demographic that is "power users", it is not a beloved feature of the userbase as a whole.
So 5% of 99%. Still niche.
