I understood this till now:
1) 1 click install is BAD if it starts adding repositories (especially
3rd party)
2) A normal Fedora user adds 3rd party repositories all the time to
install normal stuff like media codecs etc
3) Fedora developers want to shield users from adding 3rd party
repositories. Users already do that all the time. But Fedora
developers dont want to make it any easier for them, else they may
open "gates to hell".
4) Hence the only thing that is keeping Fedora users from hell is the
difficult (ok lets call it secure?) process of repository addition and
their inability to grasp it quickly and use Google.
Right?
