I'm sorry to have to point this out, but this is the sort of attitude that doesn't bring us any further. Actually, we simply don't know the background here. For example, if these OEMs actually ran controlled experiments, they have hard data that, as far as I can tell, no one in the "open" community has. Unless we find a way to run controlled, repeatable experiments by ourselves, all we are doing here is bikeshedding, and hard data wins over bikeshedding anytime. Additionally, I don't think that mailing-list bikeshedding is the right way to design good interactive software, anyway. Canonical's design team is definitely paying attention to us (as we can see from their active participation in this list) but they are aren't making their decisions solely based on our input, which, in my opinion, is also the right thing for them to do.
