I don't understand. What argument are you tired of hearing? Teams has more users than Slack. Doesn't matter how/why they got them.

But lots of Slack users are captive as well (e.g., when CIO licenses Slack for <$FORTUNE_500_CO> )

They totally do, especially at big companies. You need to show that you made a difference, and rolled out new communication platform for the whole company, not just for 5%.
