You are far from an average user though.  There are lots of users that
Fedora would like to target that would flinch (at a minimum) when told
they have to change their firmware settings first.  Even more would be
disturbed when you tell them that to run Fedora you have to disable an 
option called "Secure Boot" (but I want my system to be secure!).

You can try to explain it all you want, but they'll latch on to the
"disable Secure Boot" and glaze over any explanation.

Developers will not have a big problem; they're used to having to enable
special options and such for some development or testing work.  Fedora
isn't just supposed to be for developers though.
