I know you were joking, but I think I must respond. The answer, of 
course, is no.  For several reasons:

  - many of our questions are from people who are new to XSL and who may
    not know that there are two versions and who may be using whatever
    came to hand first

  - XSLT 1.0 is widely used and the transition to XSLT 2.0 is not without
    cost (and pain). So, many will continue to use 1.0 - possibly for a
    long time.

  - we have not (yet) seen the hoped-for flood of XSLT 2.0 tools, which
    means that some will be cautious about adopting it

Absolutely!
