Totally agree, it's the main reason I'll never recommend Linux to anyone, because you can't expect normal people to understand these things.

But it's kinda funny to me that you just said "I was going to run this code on my system, until I saw some other code in the same repo, and now I refuse to run it" :D It's all the same repo, you're willing to try part of the code, but not another part of it. Completely arbitrary.
