installation/setup is dead simple. up and running in under 3 minutes:
git clone https://github.com/lllyasviel/Fooocus.git
cd Fooocus
pip3 install -r requirements_versions.txt
python3 entry_with_update.py
git clone https://github.com/lllyasviel/Fooocus.git
cd Fooocus
pip3 install -r requirements_versions.txt
python3 entry_with_update.py
> pip3: command not found
Okay. I'll need to install it? What package might that be in, hmm. Moving on, I already know it's python.
> /usr not writeable
Guess I'll use sudo...

Obviously I know better than to do this, but very few people would. This is not 'dead simple'! It's only simple for Python programmers who are already familiar with the ecosystem.
Now, fortunately the actual documentation does say to use venv. That's still not 'dead simple'; you still need to understand the commands involved. There's definitely space for a prepackaged binary.
This said, it's nice when developers attempt to detect the executable they need and warn what package is missing.
Additionally, some package choices depend on hardware.
In the end, a lot of the more popular projects have "one click" scripts for auto installs, and there are some for Fooocus specifically, but the issue there is its not as visible as the main repo, and not necessarily something the dev wants to endorse.
