The simplicity of Ubuntu installer is the + point for this distro.
When I am trying to install a distro, I don't want to be asked whether I 
want to install SSH Daemon, then in next slide if I want to install LAMP 
stack and this keeps on going until I get fed up.

Esp for servers, you need a bare-bone setup and then install packages as 
per your requirements.

I know lack of customization can be a negative point for some people, 
but it is not a step backward.
