The many, many people who do need new kernel functionalities, but need to control all their existing hardware and simply won't trash a perfectly good PC just because it's the trendy thing to do, since:
they can find a ton of more meaningful uses of the same money (dance classes, extra days of vacation, clothes, theater...)
they simply don't have that money
See the project in my signature, or the "Unbloating the kernel" thread here for the big picture.
