Biggest evidence of that is Epic will give away games for free, but there will be people who prefer to pay for the Steam version over the free version.
That's the biggest evidence that piracy is a problem of distribution and goes against the idea that those who pirates are against paying for a product.
I'm one of these people!
I do the same thing. I never got an Epic account, and really spend more money on GOG.
I enjoy the Epic exclusives because when it lands on Steam or GOG, it's usually feature complete and less buggy.
