With too much technical abracadabra and a lesser understanding the mistake is made easier. If the explanation was made in such way that it also shows which applications rely on which service, it can be prevented that some system dependent services are shut down with unwanted results. Or, when turning off a service, some pop-up dialog box appears informing the users that the service they try to shut down is also required for application (...). It can be done easily. But i agree with you that any change has to be done with precaution, experienced user or not.
This is a dilemma, the tool allows users to enable and disable certain services, by it's nature it is technical.
With no disrespect to you(or other users) unless you fully understand the "technical" impact(implication) of enabling/disabling certain things you could break your install, or stop it booting.
You may think "oh that looks O.K to disable, but something else may rely on that service." It needs to be used with caution.
