having them understand what a “federated platform” is, is too much to ask

Email is the usual analogy.

trying to find a Mastodon instance to make an account on was irritating.

Your average person will just land on mastodon.social without bothering to read the TOS... i mean rules, you know that.

And you missed a real key argument: network effect. If average person's friends are on platform XYZ, that's where average person will be (although this is stronger with messengers).
