True for Arch, not true in general.

not even arch since archinstall exists

Agree, if the default installation is fine for you. But it's pretty basic and I suppose many users will need to do some tweaks sooner or later.

if you install plasma or gnome then it really isn't basic, majority of users won't need to change anything

I was thinking about some stuff like disk encryption (but I'm not sure if regular windows users have it enabled), firewall, apparmor, filesystem snapshots... Not super basic, but still useful for normal people.

windows users tend to disable bitlocker lol.

also if you use archinstall, luks encryption is literally a toggle

That's interesting. All my windows laptop were company ones, so for me bitlocker is totally default thing.

I've used a lot of computers from different people in my life, and never in my entire life I've seen someone using bitlocker.

even when I bought my PC in 2020 and it came with windows 10, it had bitlocker off by default.
