OSGeo4W is certainly a little more involved. On the other hand -
without wanting to sound arrogant - I don't think that non-tech people
should be using a nightly build. In my opinion, having a little more
difficult installer is kind of a protection mechanism.

Please don't misunderstand me. I get it that people want to use the
new shiny version that's recommended everywhere. But what options do
we have? People ask for features that are missing from the release.
Should we not tell them that they will be available in the next
release?

Best wishes,
Anita
