Application installation isn't a user level task. The application being ready for a user to use, and being easy to install are separate. You get your IT literate helper to install for you, then, if the program is easy for users to use you're golden.
That's a very corporate mentality. Outside of an organizational context, installing applications certainly is a normal user level task. And for those users that have somebody help them, that somebody is usually just a younger person who's comfortable clicking 'Next' to get through an installer but certainly has no devops experience.
Maybe corporate, but that's how it works in my family...
