I don't think that's entirely true.  Those of us who use a lot of
systems and support others need a reasonably sane set of defaults.
We don't want to be in a Windows 8 situation where you can't do
anything with a machine before you've spent 20 minutes installing
add-ons and changing defaults.

Andrew.
I agree with this as long as it doesn't remove "choice" from the menu, if all of a sudden i have no choice but to use, say...LXDE (which I'm not too fond of!) then I see us heading down the same path as Windows. but maybe if there was an "extra" step in the installer?....like just before you do the reboot into the "first boot" screen?...offering you ONLY like maybe 6 DE's? (Cinnamon / XFCE / LXDE / Gnome / MATE / KDE...this way you can install as many machines with the same "default" settings with no juggling act to make sure they're all the same....sort of a "standard' without the standard overhead!..
