They aren't germain to the conversation. Example...2 customers or 2
million customers. How many customers you have isn't a factor for each
of them on how or if they are going to back up a configuration
file...it's a decision that is made one by one. If I'm customer, am I
going to change my backup habits one way or the other because you have
X number of other customers.
