not true since not a lot of people dont use
autopackage at all yet. if you mean they distrust the
distributed model of letting upstream developers
release the binaries themselves instead of relying on
the centralised and distro redundant centralised
repository model then they dont the usefulness of a
distro neutral packaging method. besides autopackage
has planned rpm integration for a future version. you
should take any valid complaints to the developers
themselves and give them a chance to explain the
logic.

no need to play the popularity game here
