I don't. Let me re-quote the exchange:

Therefore, again, I am concerned about your view that nobody outside of 
a few users (or apparently only myself *according to you*) would want to 
create Debian installation media using their native OS utilities.

I can only hope that other people here do not share this opinion, which 
you did voice very explicitly as far as I am concerned. And you are of 
course very much invited to clarify what you actually meant when you 
replied "This appears to be *your* goal" and how this should not be 
construed as reductive when it comes to the amount of people who might 
be interested in using their OS' native tools to create Debian 
installation media.
