The excerpt below is not one dramatic instance. It's a sensationalist
article from a publication which apparently hasn't read the LSB,
hasn't read the discussion that went through debian-user and
debian-devel, and is just trying to rile people up (LATE) to get
readers. I'd suggest not reading LinuxFormat, if they can't be
troubled to get things right.
Check out

for starters.
