> back when I was using arch I wrote pkgbuilds instead of configure/make/installing to my home folder. kept my ./local/(bin|lib|share) clean and meant I could update it easier or uninstall it with pacman.

This is exactly what a tech savvy user would do.

yeah, and the number of people who use a non-android linux and aren't "tech savvy" rounds to zero. It is very weird to ask "what's in it for the regular user" with the assumption that "the regular user of e.g. SUSE" is the same as "the regular user of a computer"
