in the minority in the microcontroller world...but how is that even
relevant?

One can
"graduate" from the Arduino software platform and start
programming the microcontroller directly, or one can use the Arduino
software platform on a scratch-built board, just as easily. Basically
someone can "graduate" into more advanced hardware OR more advanced
software whenever they feel comfortable, and do the other later.
That may be true, but for the most part what little I have seen of modern
controller is that you tend to be I/O limited as I expect you will find
a lot
of 8 pin devices, as compared to a full size older single chip computer.
