FWIW, I think that if you read Patrick's complete statement, he is not terribly inaccurate: he cites Math, Physics, CS -- to that I would add statistics and computational methods/OR. If you look at some of the professional societies (eg IEEE, ACM, ASA, AMA, etc) that submit style files, you will note that TeX overwhelms everything else.
