Because people can already barely provide this level of information for a Windows device. Most of these words look like technobabble to non-tech-enthusiasts

Of course the words will be different. They aren't hard words. And they can be answered very easily. In fact, most forums ask to include an output of something like inxi -Fazy with every question, thus eliminating the need for all of these things.

For more niche problems, people might ask for more specific information. But most of the time, they'll tell you exactly what to run to get that information.

You know what's the Windows alternative for this? Most of the time, nothing. You need to reinstall Windows. Mac is similar, except you need to have it replaced. You actually CAN repair Linux. That's the difference.
