In my opinion the software written for the distro by the distro is
something you get. However, in this case I think Debian's software is
better than Red Hat/SuSE, so I do not see that as an "advantage".

Huh? I assume you mean Debian not MS? Debian gives some of the best
support on the planet. It just doesn't have commercial support. Which is
a factor.

You can't hold the company accountable either. Read their EULA. Almost
every vendor has a "not liable" clause.
