What I'm getting at is that these next product releases (leap of faith) are going to bring wider hardware support and, with that, new users who haven't previously had the opportunity.

jacadcaps, I disagree and Velcro_SP (unintentionally) highlights my thinking - OS4 and MorphOS both owe so much to the Classic Amiga. I'm sure there are at least a few that can see past the juvenile red-blue schism and will have both installed on their PPC enabled Classics.
