That's simply not true, and our base of 40+ machines happily running 
Debian is a perfect example.  We know Debian's direction and transparency,
and have no clue what additional random profit-maximizing gimmicks or 
quick package hacks will be made at the whim of Shuttleworth (one can't say
Ubuntu, because in this case it's a wholly owned vanity distribution). We also have no desire
to clean up the pieces afterwards.
