people will either learn how to use their computers or not, but I assure you they'll learn slower crawling over sharp edges than having things they can use quickly out of the box

most people do not have the time to learn things that require a lot of pre-requisites. You may not see the pre-requisites because you've been using your computer as a computer for decades. But most people see them as appliances. Game modding, being frustrated with windows, installing games, coding, doing web stuff that requires markdown knowledge, etc, even just being around technical people on social media, gives you a lot of the prerequisites without you even noticing.

most people do not have those.
