Yes, sorry. My statement may have been a bit more stronger than I intended. I did not mean to say that the Debian project explicitly
does not want ex windows users. I mean to say that the Debian project does not want or need them
in particular. Because the OP was asking something along the lines that wouldn't more people coming from windows use Debian if it were easier to install. In response to that, I thought it pertinent to point out that Debian does not in any particular way "live off" ex windows users, unlike Mint. If all ex windows users were to say that they no longer want to use Debian, then not much would change w.r.t o developing Debian, whereas if the same happened to Mint, then Mint would effectively stop existing as a project. So, certainly, to answer Garry's question, no you will not find an explicit statement on debian.org that these users are not wanted. But you will neither find any reference to them being particularly important or wanted.
Another way to see this would be to look at the sponsors of Debian and realize that they are industrial players that have industry needs, but that these needs are not related to home PC use.
https://www.debian.org/partners/
https://bits.debian.org/tag/sponsors.html
etc.
These would keep on sponsoring Debian even if people no longer wanted to switch their laptops from win to linux.
