It's a mistake to think in terms of installing distro's as some proficiency
badge. My guess is the original poster meant to be encouraging to anyone
who's installed and using a Linux system, rather than rate users according to
what distro they prefer, and managed to install.
After all it's the experience configuring systems, interest areas and
practical use of programs in daily usage which is useful.
