I think people would if there were a viable free option.
Also it isn't easy to find good mid-range hardware. I bought HMD(Nokia) for years but then I spent 250 on one of their new models and the phone was absolutely unusable (laggy UI).
Having to research models and software versions of CyanogenMod every few years just wastes my time. And then run into issues.
Plus security matters to me.
Microsoft failed to enter the market with billions spent - it isn't an easy problem.
