The new user often has to choose their DE regardless. This just moves it from the webpage where they’re presented with 3 or 4 different “distros” with different names for some reason, all under the same ISO, which I would argue is far less confusing (especially if presented with the relevant information during the install).
Sure, but presenting DE choice inside the install will confuse the mythical new user.
But I agree with you. A lot of download bandwidth and hosting storage could be saved by doing what Cachy/Endeavour ISO’s are doing.
