Indeed. Even for a technical person this can be daunting with so many options that if you don't know all that much about encryption you can easily make mistakes.
There really should be an easy-setup mode which defaults to the commonly recommended options. Give the user fewer options and they will make fewer mistakes. I am surprised there isn't such an option actually. Most things in the FOSS world have be streamlined/simplified over the past decade (for example look how difficult it used to be when partitioning a hard drive during a Linux install, now it is all done for you if you just want the defaults).
