Canonical are making a bet on the graphical subsystem re Mir/QT/QML/Oneclick to crack touch/mobile. Similar to Apple going all-in on Objective C/Cocoa(Touch).

But for the low level non-graphical parts of Ubuntu it makes a lot of sense to stick to standard Linux/Debian. At the terminal/sysadmin/command line level a standard setup is desirable.
