Correction: You are #5. I added a case that I missed, sorry. I stated the focus is on the Type-1 and Type-2 meter and circuit breaker panel surge protectors to see what their effectiveness is based on user experience. I stated the poll assumes everyone has Point-of-Use surge protection such as power strips and in your case UPS protectors. These are all Type-3 protection.
I'll update the post to make it clearer.
