Perhaps it was a slow fade.

No doubt. My co-worker was still insisting on using double spaces ca. 2011.

I think it took a long time for more people to hear of the new rule (it's not like there was some kind of official announcement on the evening news) and even when they did, they often clung to the old rule because it was too hard to un-learn it, or because they didn't understand the reason for switching to only one space (i.e. auto-kerned proportional fonts - assuming you're using a proportion font - render two spaces unnecessary). There's probably a lot of people who still use two spaces out of habit and just haven't ever run into a situation where this went against official formatting rules they had to follow, say to submit a manuscript to a publisher or an article to a journal.
