Okay. Everyone is different. If they can point, click and type they can open a terminal and type something simple.

I have to say your car analogy is more difficult.

It's just a matter of explaining a different process than what they are familiar with to install something. It's not hard at all after you show/explain. Just different and in my opinion easier than an exe.

If you can open an app you can open the terminal. It's not a daunting task.

The analogy showing a difficult task is the point. "It's more difficult." Yeah, to you. Opening a terminal and typing a command for something you don't do often feels like second nature to you, because you're an expert. You're already using Linux. Try teaching that to a thousand grampas. Good luck retaining your sanity.
