I embrace all the choices in the Linux world. I reject headlines like this. A decades old project like Debian is certainly already „made as it should be“, thank you very much. The „finally“ triggers me hard as well.

This work makes life easier to normal user to install debian like he/she does with other distributions, a work that should be already thought by official live maintainers due to the use case. Anyway for some reason (time, unable to see the use case, other) it was not done. No problem, now there is it.
