Probably has more to do with the other features of Visio.  Hidden metadata,
slow VBS, fragile registry dependencies, ... all of which engineers tend to
discover before an important deadline.

Like most things enterprises use it because that's what they know.  Managers
also believe they "can't get fired for buying IBM". They will likely continue
believing this until another manager comes along who knows open-source and 
how to use it for a better ROI.
