I understand.

Perhaps it might be possible to make a package that people could point at any VPS which runs the setting-up and hardening.
You could have prompts for the unique bits such as name and exit or relay.
Arm is part of the way there I feel.

Your ideal is good. You might have sparked some other thoughts towards its fruition.
