So you can be the one responsible to fix other vendor's software and web sites when they fail to run on other browsers. Have fun with that. Not everyone can switch and still function. It may not be the fault of the company using IE. Also, you have to look at organizations like Hospitals that are under regulations that may make it impossible or expensive to recertify equipment. A good example is the FDA regulating product certification systems. Changing out a system design can cost tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars to recertify a design.
I have my fun with Linux and use it in various ways, but it isn't always the easiest thing to just swap out in a workstation setting. You apparently have very limited knowledge of the various industries and exist in a world where your way is the only correct way. You can go have fun with your copy of Linux, but don't assume it fixes everyone's issue without understanding what they do. If they can switch and still function, great. For purely desktop/laptop environments, Microsoft still has ~90% market share.
