NO! You most certainly WOULD be told about dselect and all the fine
offerings from the folks at Debian and could then launch dselect and
modify the system to your heart's content. You just would not see it
during the INITIAL INSTALL.
All you would do is answer a set of basic questions:
Are you on a local network (LAN, most likely ethernet)?
Do you have a dial up internet connection?
Do you want a text-only system?
etc.
And a set of applications would be installed.
I missed the original post, but

Absolutely. Indespensible if you ask me.

Why is it that the same people that tell us that manned space flight
is a waste of money also tell us that we have been visited by aliens?
