If I'm going to spend money on a lts subscription from someone, and want it
to go towards supporting the ecosystem, this is an important data point.

As for it being a bit impolite, come on. Kernel people don't do polite. It
could be worse (or better). Al Viro could have said something.

I think it does the universe some good to knock Canonical and Ubuntu down a
peg or two. Restores some equilibrium.

Canonical does not, and will never, change for Ubuntu. There is no "subscription" version. It's free.

I meant "charge", of course, not "change"
