I’ve literally never installed an operating system. I can pretty confidently say that most of the people I know have never installed an operating system either.
I probably could follow all those steps because I’ve had experience navigating my computer’s BIOS, but most people don’t even know what a BIOS is. To ask them to navigate and make sense of it without detailed instructions is pretty unfair.
The fediverse is a very niche place, and the general tech savvyness that’s common here should not be taken as an actual measure of how tech savvy the general population is.
What’s crazy is you can actually learn how to do things by trying, it’s crazy! I didn’t know how to install Linux either when I was 12, but just searching for information I was able to learn how to do it.

This is a much better explanation of what my point.
Everytime I’ve tried to do anything in my BIOS the guide has an option to do something that doesn’t exist for me
