I know that many of these are newpackages, but many aren't though.

My experience is that most commercial users do not bother with logging
into Bhodi or even know it exists.
Another problem is that EPEL doesn't /yet/ use bhodi, so it has a
different workflow -- meaning EPEL-testing doesn't really test anything,
it means "rolls every 30-40 days", and that's about it.
So testing has to happen manually, Fedora is the minority use case.
Having a way to vote/comment without FAS would probably be enormously
helpful in getting more users to use the system, once EPEL uses the same
system.
Definitely. Whenever I ask users to test an update and then comment in
bodhi, the latter never happens. They test the update and 2 weeks later I
get a nag mail from bodhi about updates still sitting around. I move them to
stable since I at least had the original reporter test it and verify it
worked.
I frequently have the same experience.
