A user in tails-support had problems to install because the screen was too small. Maybe this feature will help on this issue, or maybe I should add a new ticket about it.

Please clarify if this is about the splash screen (Feature #9006) or the “main” window and then update/create the relevant ticket.

This ticket will be solved (and even more) through Feature #8859, so let’s reject this simplification proposal as we’ll never do it as such but rather do Feature #8859.
