It is the most important dimension and the only dimension most users care about. Fully correct.

Illogical statement and incorrect. I've used Mint and elementary and all the issues remain. But let's say you're right.
Then this would STILL be a usability issues. Too many choices... a user has to dig and choose the right distro to be "easy" to use.
>Do some research.

That's just preposterous. Linux user friendliness has not been slow or fragmented, it has come really far just in the last five years. Windows on the other hand has gotten relatively worse since the 'high' periods of early NT kernel OSes.

Incorrect. It is only "one" of the important dimensions, but to call it "the most" important one is at -at the very least- misguided and absurd.

Your inability to use many of the user friendly distros available (like Mint or Elementary) cannot be generalized to the wider public.
Do some research.
