You are quoting out of context.
The post I was replying to was talking about other operating systems.
He didn't specify which ones, but it was obvious that they weren't Debian,
when it is the Debian install process which is under discussion.
I am not saying that these decisions shouldn't be made, either.
What I am saying there needs advisory material placed into the
installation process so that newbies can make INFORMED decisions and
remove the disorientation factor that brings about rejection.
