Yep, you nailed it.

Sometimes you lose the battle to win the war. Not a big deal big deal in the grand scheme of things anyways.

Yeah, but the newbs don’t realize that in the beginning. They act as if their choice is a permanent decision and they are already overwhelmed and don’t really understand the choices. At least until they realize it’s LInux Boi Summer and go whoring around riding the distro carousel.
