I feel like you're describing Windows here lol

Windows does manage it quite well with the OOBE to be fully functional with regular hardware. Only special stuff like (d)GPUs and external stuff might require special drivers.
Basic sound, networking, (multi-monitor) video and peripheral support works very good.

As does practically every Linux distro. I install it, it just works. Don't even need to hunt for GPU or printer drivers like I do for windows.
