But ppl on f1 are non resident aliens. A huge number goes back. F1 does not mean citizenship. Same for h1.
Maybe 5-10% of the students go back, but almost all the H1Bs apply for GCs and stay here, and the backlogs dating uptil 2001-2002 support that theory. What you said in my opinion should hold true for visitors only.

I could give you some links of tales of frustration and anger I came across of immigration portal discussion forums, which will surely prove to you that it does impact them seriously.
