GTK still changes its theme support and requirements too much from release to release. That's a big reason why none of the mainstream Linux distros have bothered building a custom theme for GNOME 3. Also, shipping an alternate theme by default, even if it were Ambiance, would be controversial. Even the early comments in this thread show how subjective theme preferences are. With Adwaita, we get a complete well-tested theme that we know integrates well into GNOME and we can share the work improving it with other distros. On the other hand, if someone wants to package and maintain a GTK/GNOME theme so that it can be installed easier, we can sponsor it for inclusion into the Ubuntu archives. One motivation for my participation in Ubuntu GNOME is to show GNOME fans and developers that Ubuntu can offer a good, complete GNOME experience. If we tweak things too much, influential people will tell their followers, "If you want GNOME, don't use Ubuntu. You should use ______. " Ubuntu GNOME provides a solid foundation and you can easily install additional extensions or themes to customize it the way you like. Or you can use something like Pinguy OS which uses the Ubuntu GNOME base but adds additional apps, extensions and an alternate theme by default.
