I'd guess the majority of non-corporate continuing OS/2 users are also Linux multibooters, so it's not so rare. OS/2 and its successor incarnations offer things no other OS or DE has attempted. It's a significant userbase, both corporate and non-corporate. If it wasn't, eComStation wouldn't have existed, and https://www.arcanoae.com/ wouldn't exist today.
Sounds like 'The return of the Walking Dead' I dropped OS/2 20 years ago, most companies I know of - mostly banks - have kicked it either. So its market share should be around <estimate> 0,001% </estimate>
I can't do with Linux what I am doing almost constantly with OS/2. I have to have both, and interop between them is already plenty bad compared with Linux to Windows and Mac.
I don't know what this very special tasks are, but with regard to openSUSE it is not something we should consider as focus. If it is really needed, one can take it from a blacklist or add it to a whitelist. Should not be too much of an effort.
