Part of the beauty of Linux is that people that don't like the direction of a particular distro can jump ship to another one. Does it really matter why? If enough people are jumping ship, then it's probably time to question your roadmap, but a few people here or there (especially if they are not your target audience) aren't an issue.

I'm simply interested in what his reason is, not trying to question the wiseness of his decision :) I agree that there is nothing wrong with switching to a different distribution if it suits you better.
Yes, FWIW I took it as a request for information, not as an invitation to a Klingon death match because I'd insulted your family's honor. I celebrate diversity! ... even as I remember Philip K. Dick's liberal translation of de gustibus non est disputandum as "those people can have bad taste and I don't care."
