Because right now, it requires someone with the knowledge of the terminal,
along with access to chatgpt to troubleshoot. If not they either have to
know what they=E2=80=99re doing or rely on the community to help them.

What I=E2=80=99m envisioning is something that built into the settings very=
 similar
to what Apple has, so I think in about 2 months I should have a decent
presentation and summary of what they can do.

You would probably need to file a bug report, but without more details it i=
