Can we talk about the rude installers not asking for installation locations?

Title.

I think it is very rude to just install to any "default" directory and not asks the user where he wants it to be installed.

There shouldn't even be a question where to put things much less a "wherever you want". Instead you want a sane, sensible standard.

What a surprise, an anti-Windows snob comment. "I dislike 75% of the world's OS choice, so let's pretend it doesn't exist."
