Why can't Ubuntu local communities create a database of local stores in their area to guide people interested in Ubuntu. Also we can create a list of peripherals accepted by the kernel and are sold by these local stores. This way, we can help fellow Ubuntu users to achieve to "just works" system off-the-bat. If these information is available online, people can now see that there's someone local that knows Ubuntu and guide them through by sharing their experiences.

It means that you can copy it on a "non-ubuntu" computer, modify it on your on computer if you want, and also that it corrects itself constantly... If you have a problem, you can ask canonical and have a customer-seller relation. If you want to try a new thing or develop a software, you get the support of the communauty !
