You must not know all that many people. Windows is pushing accounts super hard. Average user is complying with this. Ask your fish monger or barista , bet one of them has a m$ account.

I don't know any average user who does their own Windows installs.

Usually they just ask some tech friend for help, and they know how to do it without an MS account.
