I've looked at Ubuntu, over many years.  I've noticed it's full of 
Windows breakaways, who don't really want to break away.  They want the
same nonsense, but without paying for it, and they know about as little
about Ubuntu as they do about Windows.  And who hasn't seen questions
and answers in Windows forums with lots of silly random suggestions?

So, yes, there's more things that we don't do because of encumbrances
(licenses, copyright, patents, unacceptable conditions).  But having
less competent user support is a major problem.

And after a couple of years of putting up with Windows crap, I picked
something else (Fedora) precisely because it's very different.

You'll have to wait and see.  Whenever *anything* is subject to a
takeover all your plans are in jeopardy.
