There's plenty of benefits Google's product offers that lineage doesn't. The surprising thing is, this kind of parameter toggling (turning on battery saver in an OS update) typically happens in non-Google OS-es too.

Just pretend it says "It would take a tech enthusiast to install [...] but the OS once installed can be used by all".
