You already pick a ton of defaults when installing an OS (English keyboard, whatever). Same as when downloading something from a random mirror. People don't think twice about these things.

My mother has never once downloaded anything from a mirror.

On the other hand, she has also never installed an operating system.

Perhaps there should be an "advanced" step during install, which would be skipped by default.
