So what is your opinion about this and the points I made in my comparison?
3) Harder to customize it exactly how you want it, harder to make it light and fast, less clean design
I've seen nothing in any other distro that compares to kiwi[1] in terms of ease of creating custom respins. This shows in the statistics in SUSE Studio[2] (with a kiwi-based backend) where SUSE distros have thousands of published respins. (How many *buntu respins can you name?) JeOS is thin & light; and even our Docker images get kudos for their lightweight nature. As far as design, I find many other distros under-engineered, and lacking in these areas: e.g. finding the /etc/skel in Raspbian to contain 1 file; the btrfs subvolume design required to facilitate snapper; YaST and its ability to cooperate with existing configurations (like via /etc/sysconfig). These things I consider to be engineering benefits, not clutter.
