Yes it matters, as a protest about Israel-Palestine, which I explicitly addressed. Surely you can understand that that is not the same as voting for another candidate? It’s a protest vote, not a vote for or against a candidate. They used the primary as a way to signal their feelings on an issue.
Beyond that: Saying “I just want someone else” is meaningless. Everybody says that across both parties year after year. The moment you put a name forward, then the responses actually matter.
Biden is the most Zionist Democrat in the field. Voting another candidate, inherently, means voting for someone less supportive of Israel
And it doesn’t fucking matter what name I put forward, I’m not the one in charge of the party. Names can come forward naturally and democratically as part of a condensed nominating process.
I, personally, think Michelle Obama would do well and could be a good President. I don’t like Kamala Harris but she has a lot of advantages and I guess I could vote for her.
But what I want are candidates to present themselves and make their case, not for them to be hand picked. Democracy.

That’s not my fucking job.
That’s theirs and they should fucking do it.
