Just downgraded to vBulletin 3

I had the latest vBulletin 4.11.1 Patch Level 1 before but upon viewing some of the most visited forums in the world like Crackberry, Wilder Security, Anandtech, and even this site I noticed they are all using vbullerin v3 and I liked the interface much more than v4. It is very simple and effecient, and the smilies look more professional rather than cartoony although that is not my reason to switch obviously since you can change those manually but just saying...

A few questions:

1) Any idea why these large forums still stick to v3 rather than upgrade to v4?

2) Am I missing on any security features by downgrading to v3? I did install the latest 3.8.7 .... does vBulletin continuously release updates for the older v3 ?

3) Am I the only one who sees v3 better than v4 in terms of UI and speed?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
