You're giving weight to a meaningless sample. That small number of
raters is in no way representative of the wider cohort of Yosemite
users. Maybe if one could poll all Yosemite users 98% would hate it,
vice versa--I don't know. But I know that the sample you're dwelling on
is meaningless.

And I know that Yosemite works just fine on five of my Macs of various
ages.

I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that
you will say in your entire life.
