What is the availibility of TLS 1.2 vs 1.1/1.0 on the internet ?
ie how likely is this to break the ability of users to access websites
they care about ?

The actual change page does mention it in passing, but not in a convincing
manner

  "User Experience

   Given the existing deployment of TLS 1.2 on the internet, there should 
   not be significant user experience degradation, although that's a 
   speculation."

Are there any internet scan survey results looking at TLS versions on
servers, that can make this more compelling than just speculation ?

I've found some via google, but they're four+ years old already so won't
mention them as it is likely oudated & misleading.  Surely someone has
got scan results looking at this from 2017/2018 though ?

NB, I'm not objecting to switch to 1.2 by default - I just like to see
a more evidence based change proposal.

Regards,
Daniel
