Do people who consider themselves "serious" photographers use Fv mode?

I am using EOS R series cameras: R7, R5MkII, and R1 but I started with Canon's 1D and 1Ds and (at least as far as I can remember), Fv mode didn't exist.  I've never seriously even tried to use it but I keep thinking that I'm missing out.  I actually shoot a lot in P mode such as sitting birds.  In Camera tab 2 ISO speed settings, I have Min. shutter speed set to Auto(2) so that if I have an 800mm lens, I get shutter speed of 1/4000 (at least 1/3200) so I'm kinda doing Tv mode but the shutter isn't fixed, it just has a high minimum based upon how far out I've zoomed the lens.

I am just wondering how popular Fv mode is.

Just a small perk. 🙂 But it isn't the only darkroom trick that folks that never entered a darkroom know about unless they read it somewhere. I love the smell of stop bath in the morning! 😁
