The idea is that "you can't break the system" and you have snapshots you can roll back to in case you do. Which is all well and fine. I think there's a whole lot of xkcd 2501 going on. As a baseline I don't even think many people who play games are very comfortable poking in ini config files, and you want them to write configs for their entire system? Don't forget you shouldn't blindly copy scripts from the internet without understanding them first as well!
