What hardcore Linux users don't seem to really get is this: The vast majority of people who need to use computers simply do not care about anything you just said. They absolutely don't. They simply want to press a button to boot the device, use the apps they need and maybe even play a game and that's it. That is what Windows does for them.
The average user is overwhelmed when the desktop icons have been moved.
I love Linux and it is on a great way to being used by a wider audience and it's great it provides the freedom it does. But it still has its quirks that makes it too hard to use for 95% of users.
But the average user is not going to uninstall their bootloader to begin with. We were talking about power users. As a power user it's nice to be able to do whatever you want.
