I suppose then, if I put on my "Hello, I am a new user potentially
interested in GNOME" hat, I would arrive at the Getting GNOME page, and
then maybe click around a bit, and figure out that there is no "really
easy" way to get the latest and greatest GNOME 3.8 (that we're all so proud
of)  onto my computer.

I know some of the reasons why that is, but I've been around Linux for a
while. A new person might wonder why a project tells everyone about
something great but then doesn't give an easy way to install it (remember,
new user, maybe non-geek).

That was really the reasoning behind my thinking of the "easy to install
rolling release with GNOME as default".
