Second one, which I'd rephrase as ubuntu sticking with apt/dpkg as its package manager. Which is really nice if you like ubuntu as a distro already.

Though I don't really get why there has to be a distro to be beaten. And having flavors is always good. I, for example, don't like distros changing too much upstream SW, so the more vanilla the better. I don't like either the periodic releases, and to be rolling release rocks. I don't like systemd, whereas most distros now a days are systemd dependent. I also dislike network manager and similar and require a distro that keeps support for the basic dhcpcd + wpa_supplicant... All that to say, that no distro fits all needs, so several options are good, no need to have one beating the rest, :)

I think it's just healthy competition
