I spend my days making equipment work and sitting in front of a computer. I don't want to spend my recreation doing that as well. Also, I've always found looking at the real object, sensing the photos that came from the object, much more satisfying than an image even though you will see more detail in an image.
I think some options are missing from the poll. There are a few people around who perform scientific observations (occultations, variable stars). That could be visual or instrumental but it still isn't quite what is in the poll.
