A computer preinstalled with Linux is definitely more likely to confuse than you imagine

I can only see it being the case if there is an implicit assumption these people are already familiar with Windows. If we remove that assumption, I can see it going either way, but it's not even remotely "definitely more likely to confuse".

    The Windows market share has wavered between 90 and 70% over the years.

    I don't know that you can ignore that assumption.

    It depends on the application anwyay. My last set up for a non-techie was a Samsung Android tablet with a keyboard cover. It's now harder to get that person on either a Windows or Linux computer.
