The majority of people probably can't even get over the hump of imaging a USB drive.

I like to think of the average person as my mom. Can my mom plug in a flash drive in a computer? Yeah. Does she know what Linux is? Nope. Can she google about Linux? Yeah. Will she get confused and inundated with the hundreds of "linux" versions? Uh yeah.

And then if she does somehow download a .iso, she'd probably copy and paste the .iso onto the flash drive and have no idea what Rufus or Balena Etcher is.

And to be honest, most people don't even need a computer nowadays. Their smart phones does everything. There is no need to have a computer anymore.
