Unity? Upstart? Mir? The Amazon Shopping lens? A general failure to listen to the very community Canonical markets as a selling point? A terminal case of Not-Invented-Here syndrome? An inability to prevent any Ubuntu-derived device (Ubuntu for Android, Ubuntu TV, and Ubuntu's mobile edition thus far) from being more-or-less commercial flops stuck permanently in development hell until they become vaporware?
