it is a weakness to recognize that some users are served better by
other distros.
Yeah, that's the user viewpoint. From the developer viewpoint, it's also not
a great idea, as that kind of users is going to strain our resources with
its support needs and is very unlikely to ever contribute anything.
So I think both sides are being poorly served by such delusional marketing.
