And this is what killed the Linux desktop. 99% of the population does NOT want to try a gazillion desktops (of which the installation is error prone), just to find out what 'works best for you'.

You don't have to if you don't want to. Any sensible desktop distro has a DE configured for you out of the box, if you want to just start using it.
