I don't think I really do. I always want to be able to fix all of the things I own so I always like to understand how they work. I don't always actually end up learning enough about them but it's not from lack of curiosity

The same thing might apply to people that just don't know how to install another OS.

I'll take my wife as an example, she knows how to work on a computer (Windows) in her sleep. Spreadsheets, documents, media, you name it. But, does she know how to work the command line? Absolutely not. If her Windows license is about to expire, she calls me. Her files get mangled up, she calls me. It's not her job to know these things, it's mine, she's a social worker, I work in IT.
