For each of targets which you mentioned you can use Poky/OpenEmbedded. And you will get highly optimized binaries + nice organized sources used to build (for license reasons).

Debian will give you not optimized stuff unless you will rebuild everything which will take you weeks due to "only native builds" requirement.

Ok, you can use Buildroot or write your own system but OE has 7 years now - do you really have a time to solve all problems which got solved by their developers?

And when it comes to UI I agree - Sato does not look impressive. But this is not the only one in OpenEmbedded. You can get GPE, E17, XFCE, GNOME and few other environments working.
