Meh. My mom (nearly 70) and my daughters (6 and 10) all use Linux. My
support level with them is orders of magnitude lower than it was when

Linux boxen than it ever was with Windows.
That precisely reflects my experience. I have a good friend, an
engineer, who used to use NT. I convinced him to use Linux instead and
have had a steep decline in the difficulty of support. He still asks
me for help once in a while but it's pretty much routine fixes. Other
friends with Windows still give me toothaches with the
incomprehensibility of their issues. Like fixing a motor on a car with
the hood welded shut.

Hmm...
They could not handle Windows so you switched them over to Linux?
Because you were not capable of fixing Windows when they broke it?
It is where I am supposed to be impressed with them? And you?
Should I genuflect? Or sacrifice a chicken or a lamb?
