Maybe the biggest question we are facing is some kind of warning like:

"Even if TYPO3 doesn't cost anything, it's still an Enterprise Solution 
CMS and is NOT well suited for simple sites, people with no time or not 
willing to dive in and complain about the way it is programmed and 
people using cheap shared hosting"

I know it look harsh and I'm the last person that want elitism (I was 
behind the New to TYPO3 http://typo3.org/about/new-to-typo3/).

I'm just trying to get expectation at the right level.

Maybe it's time to clearly make this point evident?

BTW, Matthew, your checklist screams 
"http://typo3.org/download/system-requirements/" !
