Well, I would say "financial" reasons rather than "marketing" reasons,
but, of course, I understand your point.

Note that we are not in any way restricting users' choice. Users are
totally free to choose their search provider, and it is very easy to
change. In the meantime, support for Ubuntu is a *good thing*. So,
agreed, we should listen to reasonable and informed feedback, and I
firmly intend to.
