No; only people using OpenPGP applications that don't support RSA

last time I tallied it up there were at least ten different OpenPGP

required.
There is theory and then there is practice.
In theory, there are some people who can't handle RSA as the standard
doesn't require it. In practice (and especially given that the
original poster commented that 90% of the people he plans on
communicating with use GnuPG anyway), that number is vanishingly
small. PGP in one form or another owns most of the OpenPGP market.
GnuPG owns most of the rest. I wouldn't worry all that much.
