>I know the reasons why this hasn't happened, but I don't care. I want to know the real reason it hasn't happened, and I think it has a lot to do with every problem looking like a nail.

That doesn't even make any sense.

Hosting services are generally not for mom and pop to start a vps on demand. For that kind of cookie cutter service, they have something called shared hosting, and its already plenty easy and has more or less what you are asking for.

If a developer can't spend couple of hours (even less unless you are a beginner) learning their way around setting up a server, it just a disaster waiting to happen.

There are time and place for cookie-cutter services, vps is not it.
