I think you're mixing two very different things: the tech and the sales channel

I was hoping to illustrate that without a hyper-aggressive sales campaign not as many people would have gone along with a bad installation.

Find a solar coop if you can to avoid the sales pain. They will assemble a group of homeowners and bid the entire group install out to achieve cost efficiency. Ground installs are cheaper and easier, imho, whenever possible (but depends on land availability and favorable solar insolation).
