Ah - I didn't realize the nuances here - thank you for clearing that up for me. 
 Understand the design goal of keeping window size and using only checkboxes - 
simple.  Also agree some text changes may help, here are some suggestions for 
your consideration:

screen 1 - install python
recommend we change "install launcher" to "install py launcher" to be explicit.

Long term - it would be cleaner if the user had only 'default' and customize 
installation on this screen, with all configurations either bundled under 
Default, or moved to other screens for 'Customized' installs.  We could add 
notes under default that we're installing python for all users, py launcher, 
adding Python to PATH, etc.

If a user does not have admin privileges, it may not be helpful to them to 
present choices they can't install.  For a default install - we could test if 
user has admin privileges and install for all users, or fall back to 'user' 
only install.

screen 2 - optional features
recommend we move "for all users" to screen 3, since this screen is about 
features to add, while the following screen is about how they are configured on 
the system.  

If this isn't possible in this release, consider 
1. changing current "py launcher" checkbox to "upgrade py launcher"
2. moving "for all users" to next line down - looks like we have space
3. changing "for all users" to "py launcher for all users"

screen 3 - advanced options
two recommendations:
1. change "install for all users" to "install python for all users"
2. insert checkbox for "install py launcher for all users" as 2nd item in list. 
 This would then be directly above the existing "Associate files with Python" 
checkbox
