It’s a survey. The same 3% of people that will answer that the moon is made of cheese.
There’s also probably a handful that are doing better personally out of sheer chance, or misread the question.
Coefficient of performance (i.e. energy efficiency) at decent delta-T is always the most important factor and rarely mentioned.
Modern cooling equipment generally has the largest environmental impact from energy consumption, not manufacturing or refrigerant leakage.
Especially with ultra-low-GWP propane or butane refrigerant, though that’s not usually used in large-scale systems.
