Yes, that's why most people (me included) upgraded the moment Qt started
shipping with msvc2015 binaries.
Everyone still stuck on 2013 is either under hard library
recompilation/dependency constraints or just doesn't care.
Both of the above are unlikely to change come 5.10 or 5.11.

On the other hand, people who jump to 5.10 will get stranded and wanting
they never left the LTS release if 5.10
happens to have stuff that actually requires long term support which, for
it, will come in the form of direct upgrade to 5.11.
