Because most prebuilts use windows and not linux. This shit ain't hard. /v/ has severe cognitive bias thinking the entire world builds their own shit, installs their own OS, regularly tweaks out their machines, etc. They don't. They never have and never will.
The majority of desktop users buy a pre-built. They never install or even reinstall an OS - if something goes wrong, they take it to a relative who knows shit, or otherwise takes it in to the geek squad or whatever the fuck. They never upgrade parts. It's a fair bet a great many of them don't even know you can install a different OS if they wanted to, and if they did, they know dick-all about linux and wouldn't look at it.
If you actually got these users on linux, they'd have a horrible time, nothing would fucking work for them, and they'd come out of the experience with nothing but bad things to say about it, putting even more people off from linux altogether. Just leave shit alone. People who want to bother and know how to bother, will bother. The rest won't, never will, and don't give enough of a shit to ask the question.
