LOL :)

There are no stupid questions :)

On most desktop systems firewall is not needed. Many users do not even
know how to configure it. In fact I disable it in most of my systems,
because there is no real use for it. So I asked a simple question
whether there is a need to install iptables by default?

Your answer is not satisfactory for me - because not configured
firewall has nothing to do with security. In fact, it can only bring
false sense of security.
