Because... Reasons. What is a "modern GNU/Linux OS" anyway?

This ain't very helpful. More detailed: if you want your Gnome
desktop environment to work "out of the box" and your (newer)
Firefox to have access to sound, you're better off with Pulse.

If you don't care about those things -- or are in for some
fiddling -- by all means, drop Pulse, and tell us others about
it!
