I think this was a much larger issue a couple of years ago when Mac OS 9 was critical to individuals and business. After they accepted that Mac OS X was here to stay Apple was able to convince developers to make software Mac OS X only. Emulation does not require the update of an operating system. For example, there are few developers that still make their software Mac OS X 10.2 compliant. Similarily, big businesses would be crazy to have a BeOS or MS Dos version of their software because all their customers have the capability to run their software which uses new graphics, etc.
Emulation is really for enthusiasts or people who need that one software application or game to work. Eventually they become accustommed to the system and wonder how they ever did without The Dock or Expose.
