You can't say that "this is how friendly we will become" since friendlyness
(and userfriendlyness) are subjective terms. However, I totally agree if you
set out that, for instance, after installing Gentoo, the average user should
be able to
- create and modify partition tables
- configure a kernel
- ...
This is not talking about friendlyness, but about end terms (cf. courses on
highschools and universities).
