Saying "small minority" implies that it is of too small a size in numbers to wield any substantive influence. But consider: if one in four of the current user base suddenly stopped purchasing the annual edition of OOTP, would the effect be of little consequence? If a quarter of your income vanished tomorrow, I'd wager you'd easily notice it. (You'd certainly notice it much more than if 10% of your income vanished tomorrow.)

You can write whatever you wish. But by arguing merit by user percentage, the implication is that the largest percentage should receive the predominant attention, and the smaller percentages can be safely ignored, since, after all, they are small and thus of little influence or value.
