Every time we try, communities such as HN share around ways to disable the security features for their own simple convenience or preference. Thus, a correction:
We have to make GP computer users accept the inconvenience of security, or GP computers will die out.
I don’t think that’s a viable plan.
I’ve seen countless HN and HN-alike folks talk about how they hold the root ssh keys to their kingdoms on a Mac that they’ve disabled SIP on, simply because it inconvenienced them one time (and not for genuine technological necessity).
If you can think of a way to change our collective minds, you have my support, but I’ve tried everything I know and essentially given up talking about such things on HN anymore. Everyone who understands is already doing the right things; everyone that isn’t talks as loudly as possible about their way of doing it, and swarm to shut down any suggestion that they should burden themselves with security.

Good luck.
