You can't have looked very hard. Bayonet is still more common for things
like pendant lamps. Of course if your hosts only had IKEA products they'll
be ES. ;-)

I did see bayonets on some lab equipment in Wales, but those
weren't run from the mains. I think we're being led down the
proverbial path here, or:

Many desk lamps these days are low voltage, and these don't use ES
fittings either.;-)

Dunno what you mean by lab equipment? Bayonets are only used for lighting.
