My point is, that "single download" or apt command to you is a royal pain in the ass to maintain, and makes things like kernel hacking a royal nightmare, all for Nvidia to play stupid out of tree games with the linux kernel maintainers. Easy "for a subset of users" does not excuse going out of the way to create more friction where none need exist.

But I'm glad your preferred workloads are unaffected. That counts for something I guess.
