As noted by .22l, 80% don't think they need a change and that's a commanding majority. You'll never have 100% agreement on anything, and getting 80% to agree that the 5.56mm is adequate is impressive.

Now, if the survey showed that 80% thought the 5.56mm lacked in lethality that would be news worthy.

20%, not so much.
