Package management is a minor thing to adapt to, in comparison to general flexibility. Having root and zypper isn't any worse than having root and apt-get.

apt-get is just an example, there are a lot of little differences between distributions and on the N9/N900 they pretty much all come out the Debian way which I both like and am very familiar with.

Mer based ones (like Nemo) come out of Meego, and have no direct relation to Debian. And actually Nemo is the only one actively developed distribution which can run on N900 and N9.
