Why,?? dumbing down is fine for perhaps home users in theory, or people with no technical ability, and they will stay like that, as they can't learn anything, if they want help it makes life very hard for old school hackers to do anything to help people, I know a lot of people moving to debian and other distros which means that there are then fewer people with excellent technical knowledge who can help, long term ubuntu will end up suffering.
