Mucking about with your ram speed and overclocking can decrease both stability, stability under load, and longevity when people are keeping computers longer than ever. It's poor advice. Insofar as using a different init, distro, window manager, kernel. Some of that is an aesthetic choice and some a function of workflow. To some degree people just enjoy fiddling with stuff and understanding it.
