The important part is that she is non-technical, not that she’s a woman.

I agree, that's my point

Well half of it, the other half being that there is some magic "technicalness" to reading a wizard. If you aren't doing weird partitioning shit on Linux it's literally like enter your username, password, time zone, and wifi information. It's not fucking hard.

Now if you find me a Linux distro that supports out of box tpm + secureboot + dual boot without requiring Cthulhu-style arcane rituals...sign me up.
