The fact that clients are not able to lock people into using them means that the best ones will proliferate and sub par ones will be abandoned. This will lead to a natural evolution towards the best possible experience, and give people a choice in deciding what they think is the best for them. They will be able to try any client without having to start from scratch every time, so the top clients will have to continually innovate instead of getting popular and then stagnating.

I don't think we really need to worry about it.
