There are nowhere near 1,000 things that must be done to make a system
usable post-install.  I spend perhaps a grand total of an hour
post-installation making it securely usable.

The issue is that I don't need to reinstall after having installed.  If
I mess up, I restore from known good backup.  Sure, I have it there in
case I screw up massively, but I haven't needed to use it yet outside of
the once that I used it just to ensure that I was comfortable with the
process working in case I needed it.
