I think there are many people still install OS in the legacy mode, but I don't really have numbers. One thing we should definitely do if we deprecate legacy BIOS is to properly warn users that still use this configuration, develop tooling for them if possible for migration and do not allow upgrades that will simply break their system.
Certainly until very recently I have tended to do legacy BIOS installs even on new machines - it's only really in the last few months that I've started using UEFI by default instead. I assume that we're only talking about new installs here anyway. I'm pretty sure switching an existing install would be something for advanced users only and might not really be possible in many cases due to the need to fine space for an EFI system partition.
