Comment (by knutsp):

 If you **don't** add this on the setup wizard then it will be still
 available on the General settings.

 If this setting is hard to find, I don't know what's not. The problem will
 be greater, as many initially may think this is wise to have enabled, but
 later finds it was not, and then have trouble finding the setting.

 I'm worried about the install page has too many options, being bloated.
 Only options that are critical to the imminent launch of the site should
 be there.

 This (as an installation option) should be regarded as plugin territory.

 What I can suggest is a link on the "Welcome" screen (dashboard widget)
 that says something about "Review your settings" with a link to 'options-
 general.php'.
