   Except InstallShield installs have to be undone in reverse order of   
   installation, don’t they? Because you can’t be 100% sure what each   
   proprietary installer is doing to your system.   
      
   Whereas Free Software is careful to document its dependencies, and allow   
   free installation and uninstallation according to them.
