If the weight of so many users shifted to Ubuntu, then Canonical would be making money from support (as Red Hat does) and could afford to hire developers.
I could say the same thing about "Oracle Linux" (and it would be just as true), except Canonical already have way more users. You seem to imagine that you get to a point where you have an infinite amount of money or something, but that doesn't happen. If it's more cost effective to ignore the community and let them clean up your mess now, it'll be even more cost effective to do it when you are producing 2x, 10x or 100x the amount of changes.
