Hello Joseph, "unbuntu-desktop" and "edubuntu-desktop" are meta-packages. They depend on everything needed for Ubuntu or Edubuntu, including Unity.
They exist to make installing Ubuntu or Edubuntu convenient: Installing them will pull in all software you need. But the opposite is *not* true: Removing the meta-packages does *not* remove the software they depend on. So: go ahead and let them be removed, nothing will be lost.
