I fail to see what is won by not providing clear, simple, standardised installation instructions in a README.
I make a habit of providing these for myself and they are great, both when I enter a new domain and need to remind myself of best practice, and when I return to a domain after a long time.
The lack of such instructions is a strong indicator to me that a project hasn’t reached maturity.
