The bias is that the framing of the survey doesn't distinguish between
"better in absolute terms" and "better given that we already have a working
system and that there's a cost for *lots* of people if we switch". I'm
surprised that you can claim that everything's ok even though several people
that appear to be concerned about the latter has stated that they won't
participate in the survey.

The survey isn't biased. You have a value "the same /worse than the status
quo" - wherein the status quo is subversion. If you hate DVCes, you mark it
as "same/worse than the status quo" and we move on.

No one is suggesting we accept *less* functionality than subversion: in fact
we're looking at these for *more* functionality.
