See, you say that as a Linux user.

Ordinary folks don't talk or think like Linux people. Nobody understands what a "process" is, let alone what a container is or what isolation means.

And if somebody is used to "pres butan get bacon" anything else is going to sound like gobbledygook.

Also: a modern distro running gnome or KDE is harder to screw up. Folks don't need to use clunky package managers like Synaptics. As a result, they are less likely to break things.
