While that is true, consider that most people who are that ignorant got
to a lube shop to have it done for them.  Therefore, for a little extra
money a service is provided that insulates them from their ignorance.

Equally, an operating system that provides insulation for a user from
their own ignorance would be much more desirable in the eyes of
potential users and/or system administrators.
