I do kinda wonder: Pop OS told him that whatever he was doing may remove some essential stuff. Pop OS specifically said "Are you REALLY sure about that?" and didn't let him skip the warning by pressing Y and enter.

A normie, perhaps my mom, would indeed not know what these packages mean but sure enough she would see the warning and perhaps call me to ask what this means. It takes a lot of naivety to ignore the warning.

Naivety? Nah it takes either a complete moron or someone who doesn't care. Since he was making a video which could oppose or uphold a popular opinion, I am guessing he didn't care..
