So you don't think there will ever be a Linux distribution that is

One would hope that every sysadmin test at least re-rests every
software solution to be deployed, regardless of OS - and if that
solution is modular, remove portions necessary to their situation.
That's a rather sad commentary on the state of the distributions and the
lack of any framework for sharing QA and configuration work, don't you
think, when every entity that would like to use it needs to have people
on staff with more expertise than the packagers that build it? That
seems equivalent to me to saying that before you use an automobile you
should have an employee take it apart and perhaps replace a few
components to make it suitable for its intended use.
