The average PC user gets by without & often doesn't think of it, till they've been bit a couple of times. Reinstalls are really tedious, even if you do have your documents saved elsewhere. That said, reinstalls are way easier with Linux than Windows, not the OS itself, that's comparable, but all the software, at least with Linux you haven't got the "Where did I get such-and-such?" and loads of sites to re-download stuff from, it's pretty much all a simple apt-get away.
Once bitten though, it's suddenly a way higher priority. Then something gets installed & set up, or the built-in solution configured be it WiB in windows, Time Machine on Mac or some other solution. As to why I advanced it, pretty well all the other barriers are solved.
Maybe it's lessening in importance with cloud this, google that, & drop the other, it's still something that matters though.
There's always the "Why aren't people adopting Linux?" question, I'm sure that has lots of other things influencing it , & I doubt the backup solutions rate much on *that* list.
Blessed is he who expecteth nothing, for he shall not be disappointed...
If there's an obscure or silly way to break it, but you don't know what.. Just ask me

^ this is where i think being able to clone a running system comes in handy like refracta snapshot/refracta installer, but you still need a bit of knowledge to get it working well.

Well we know where people stand on [init system of choice], so can we quit the tedious repetition now?

I’ve got this horrible feeling that if there is such a thing as reincarnation, knowing my luck, I’ll come back as me!
