every person educated about the djs business knows that trance is the esiest of all EDM to play on turntables.

That's exactly it: because it's the easiest music to mix, ergo the DJs haven't spent very much time practising their skills (they don't need to), so they do not have a love affair with their equipment. It's not much of an adjustment for them to move to digital.
For DJs who spent an entire lifetime honing their craft, who spent YEARS just learning certain tricks and techniques that are only applicable with vinyl and tech 12s, it's a bit trickier to give up the ghost (but why would they want to?).....because when you've invested that much time, that much energy, and that much precision into a particular apparatus, you tend to want to stick with it, for changing equipment is like telling yourself that you just wasted the entire first half of your life.
Trance DJs naturally do not have this problem. They haven't spent very much time with any musical equipment ever, and so are free to gravitate to whatever device will do the most work for them.
