An advanced windows user knows how to install new hard drives, they shouldn't have to find the right package to install as well - new drives should just work. I reckon our desktop users are much more likely to install a new hard drive than compile a package. I don't know why you think my Ubuntu experience is improved by giving me less configuration options than Windows.
