So, in all liklihood, all these guys jumping around claiming they
don't need the 'www" (for whatever benefit they see in that? - which
to me is none), are just "lucky" that their particular DNS happens to
have both URL formats (with and without www) pointing to the same
server.

Your explaination also answers another question I had, but did ask:
And that was along the lines of subdomains, such as www.xyz.microsoft.com

Actually, likely as not, the browser adds the "www." itself.
