Wow. that is immensely stupid.
EDIT:
let me explain.
The problem, I see, with many Linux distributions is that they are constantly comparing themselves with one another "we have feature X like distro Y" type stuff. That's the wrong way to go about it.
Consider the people who use the distribution as if they were "customers"; and really, they are; they are spending their time on your product. In that sense, you should be listening to your customers, not to your competitors. If a customer wants Feature X like it exists in distro Y, they will let you know. If they don't, you'll have saved yourself development time to spend on the things they do want.
Also, a lot of Linux distributions seem to be in the same wide market of being a "general purpose desktop". But how many try to forge a niche? Forging a niche that is designed for what about 10% of users wants means you'll end up getting that 10%, and your competitors fight over the remaining 90%. For example; Chrome OS is basically a niche distribution, it is a relatively limited environment designed specifically for web access. Google learned this by looking at it's prospective customers, and what they needed, and only then comparing those needs with what was available. They attempted to corner it. the constant complaints about Chrome OS not being a good environment for a desktop- they are true, but they miss the point. It's not supposed to be a replacement for your standard Windows, Linux, or OSX desktop- it's cornering a small market segment, and the fact is that the people complaining about it do not matter because they aren't part of it.
Software is about what your customers want, not what your competitors give.
