So many users try to install Magento 2 on top-level domain like «localhost», and I think Magento 2 should warn such users during installation

Yes, agreed! I did fresh install only for admin login to break(infinite loop), and front end page loaded without css... I mean, this issue has been carried over from 1.x can't this be added or at minium a huge warning stating this will be problem... It would've saved me a few hours had i known this.

Same here. If this is a common issue then at least a warning during installation is warranted.

I don't know why this is a problem and how to fix it(I have no css and missing images/media), can someone link me to the solution? (btw I'm a noob so please language for dummies thanks)

Add domain to your host file something like "magento.local" and point to 127.0.0.1
