The only few reason I know so far is software availability, like adobe software, and Microsoft suite. Is there more of major reasons that I missed?

Right, but this is why you do the bare minimum research before choosing a distro. Find one that fits your needs. If you're going to use the PC for mostly gaming, and you install a distro that's notoriously bad for gaming, that's kind of on you.

As an experienced Linux user, yes, but as someone who has only used Windows, that wisdom is not in place.

By the time they get burned out by trying two random Distros, they are going to be pissed and if you say "You should have checked" they will remain on Windows out of spite, even after Windows goes under.
