Well, I try to understand why something is included. I've run arch for years (BTW), though my current computers are running Fedora and Debian. I won't say I know everything about Linux or even installing it or booting it, but I do know more than I would if I just followed step by step.

It's the same for me but I didn't always know that much about linux.
