Thanks for the compliments about my review.
I don't think people should label Ubuntu or Debian as the best OS. Linux is here for the freedom of choice. Mine was Debian because of its great comunity job and some other things. But it's not the best for everyone.
Ubuntu is feeding back Debian with patches and updates. Ubuntu is always in a hurry to stay on schedule and Debian is released when it's done.
Ubuntu is a trademark of Canonical that sponsors the development and Debian lives from donations.
Canonical wants to create a comunity based distribution but says that today's Ubuntu will remain free forever. Maybe Canonical will support Debian better as a comunity distribution, maybe not.
I'll stay with Debian for now, but everyone is free. Make your choices!
