devil's advocate: this will save the vast majority of user (which are completely tech illiterate) from loosing their most important data

lets be real, none of them will use a private or foss backup solution any time soon.

I'd rather not they loose their important family photos for that oh so horrible crime of offending my privacy nerd sensibilities

Except it won't be their most important data. Either their very first files from their desktop (up to 5 GB), or random 5 GB files (no idea which). Once it's filled quickly, it will start nagging about buying more storage.

I'm not confident my tax documents aren't saved to my dektop.

I usually air gap onto an external disk, but I've been busy recently.
