No, it's never a good idea to replace one evel with another one and I

Yes, You are right. It was the attitude carried by Your advice which

Using a mouse (I learned that 36 years old in five minutes) and
installing deb based software *not hold by a repo*, are incomparably
different levels of technical practice :o)).
