Nice analogy :)

Personally, I don't work on soup, but stick to bangers and mash :p
(Again, using whatever stove I'm given)

That sounds like it's probably more profitable
than soup. If you could offer an English language
version you might even find bigger market....

It probably has to do with the fact that most developers have moved on
to .NET (where COM still exists but is increasingly unimportant), Java,
Ruby, Python, etc, etc. All languages, that in the main don't care
about COM. All can interact with it if needed - but, it's generally
not needed for day to day work.

I used to care a lot about COM when I was doing VB.CLASSIC... Now, not
so much.
