And I don't think having to disable "Secure" Boot in the firmware is a
hurdle which will make our users "simply walk away". I didn't "simply walk
away" either back in the day where RHL wouldn't boot without disabling the
"Plug and Play operating system" option in the BIOS. I found it perfectly
normal that the firmware settings need to be adjusted based on the operating
system(s) one wants to use. (Window$ worked just fine with the changed
option, just as it reportedly will with "Secure" Boot disabled, see Matthew
Garrett's posts about that subject.)

Then why did you bring up Apple machines in the first place? They'll be
screwed exactly the same way in both plans, so how are they relevant to the
discussion at hand?
