May be. But I also think it is because the quality of Debian packages,
packaging process (having Sid, testing, stable, experimental, backports),
bug reporting process have improved a lot in recent years. As a result, a
user of Debian does not need to constantly write emails to d-u for support.

I think so. But I am also glad that it is that way.
