This is total FUD. Who exactly is this fictional administrator you speak of? They sound too incompetent to actually be running GNU/Linux let alone administering it. I might buy that there are a handful whom might only be willing to administer a Redhat box. However any administer with any experience at all on a few different Debian or derived distribution (even just having tried them for a few minutes) is going to know there aren't any significant learning curves or major differences between Debian derived distributions.

If you have Debian background on the server you'll already know Trisquel, Mint, Ubuntu, and others. These may not all be good choices for a server although the differences are not significant enough for there to be a 'learning curve'. Not even a small one. About the only 'major' difference is in naming schemes.
