Average users don't install OSes. They don't care about OSes. Nobody would ever expect an average user to even think about looking for a gaming distro. I think you need to retune your idea of what an average user is.

My idea of the average user is a complete idiot who doesn't know how their computer functions. I know they don't know how to install an OS. My point that if I was unable to find Bazzite, they have no hope of doing so still stands.

Nobody is expecting them too. That's all in your own head.
