Its not just about customer considering single cores.

Its about customers considering how fast the cores run. You get a drop every time you increase the number of cores.

As for considering single core, many don't because dual core is available, but if it was only a choice between single core and much slower quad core, single core would look better, and a number of knowledgeable customers would demand it.
