That does not seem to follow logically. As long as the
Distribution is sound technically, these other distributions exist to
cater to niche user populations. Why should we encourage people who
are meant to be served by our derived distributions to use Debian,
rather than the distributions specifically created to cater to them?
Do you want our derived distributions to fail?
How the Debian web site looks in no way affects the distributions
other people are basing their efforts on.
You should remember we have current users of our own. We should
be catering to our user base, rather than conspiring to steal users
from our derived distributions :) :).
