I do appreciate the effort involved in this,  but it still gives me some questions with reference to Canonical's recent announcement about "pulling the plug" on Kubuntu.

Canonical has not announced any such thing.  I expect you are thinking
of one of the misleading media articles.

Software is never finished.  We package the software KDE gives us, and
as community members of KDE we fix that too.  Bugfixes are available
in -updates, new versions in -backports as announced on kubuntu.org.
If you have bugs or feature requests you should report those to KDE.
