You're right, I was reading this on my phone.

Sorry for the confusion.

My points about the complexity of msys2 still apply to me though, and 
that's why I avoid it. I simply have no need for it, and I don't think 
most people do. It is a very valuable service in certain scenarios, I 
just don't think many of them apply to beginners who are asking this sort 
of question.
It's getting far off-topic for the list though, so I'll end it here.
