removing choice that was never there ? 
sorry, but i totally miss the point of your statement ...

this thread was discussing *adding* something to the *default* install
that hasn't been there before, how can that be removing choice ?

the policy of not adding duplication on the default installation has
been there since day one of ubuntus existence (like the policy of no
open ports has as well)
