It's not just "garbage". There is a reason for it, that the majority
of the Debian community agrees with, or it wouldn't be done. Plain and
simple. I'm sure you are already aware of the reasons, but reject them.
What you label "garbage" are the very attributes that many Debian members
hold dear.

If you don't like Debian, you are free to either attempt to improve it,
or join the ranks of others who use a different system. It's a personal
choice. Debian is different for a reason.
