I agree. New linux users will install and never use many programs. A
clean sheet every 6 months will prevent the entrophy from forming on
those systems. Also, the more they reinstall, the faster the newbies
learn.

Experienced linux users might not need to reinstall so often (less
crud on the system and less need to pracitce), but they should be less
bothered by a reinstallation. At a minimum, it will force them to
backup once every 6 months :)
