What is it with Ubuntu or Kubuntu that makes you _not_ use Debian directly?

I dropped Debian because at the time I bought my amd64 Gentoo seemed to be the 
only reasonable setup for a mixed 64/32-bit environment. Debian did only have 
a beta release for 64-bit and the mix of 32-bit and 64-bit was sub-optimal in 
my opinion.

Now, my opinions on Gentoo are steadily falling. I get to use my fat DSL and 
my X2 AMD processor a bit more than I like because of all the compiling. I am 
very satisfied in average with Debian sid on an older x86 machine and really 
miss it on amd64.

For some reason I never got attached to Red-Hat or Fedora and Suse was 
replaced with Debian between 6.4 and 7.0 because I would have to sweep my 
harddisk to get the new version of Suse.
