This idea of "lapsed" D&D players is silly. When people say "lapsed" what they mean is not playing the current edition. But I promise those "lapsed" players are opening their OD&D, AD&D, 1st ed, 2nd ed, and whatever books and having a great time. The language being thrown around by WoTC and others implies that there are these players languishing in dark basements all over the world, just waiting for a savior. But trust me, if they're still opening those 20+ year old books there is a reason. Because they're happy.
