- Software packages are not always the latest version.
- Some are following EU and non-GPL regulations very strict.
- another distro that fell victim to systemd.
- It is the USER who decide how a server or desktop should look like. NOT someone with some influence with the distro-organisation.
- you are not stuck to the delivery scheme of the release.
