It's possible that this says more about you or the people you meet than
anything else.

So an ad hominem attack as opposed to facts to answer the question - nice.
No, I mean that your anecdote tells you nothing about the population,
only about the people involved. Spend time in Bugzilla or on the forums
and you'll find no shortage of people who have come to Linux from
Windows. If you've never met these people then that just means that you
haven't met them, not that they don't exist.

But don't you think that if they are determined enough to go to bugzilla and 
make an entry they
are smart enough to turn off secure boot? I guess my feeling is that people 
that have the where
withall to attempt to load another OS on their Windows box won't be afraid to 
disable secure boot
especially if it is explained to them why they need to.
