Installing lubuntu will lead to openbox (only a windows manager)
appearing as DE, and I'm one of those brave souls who knows that
terminals exists and decided to explore linux, but people who're
induced to do so without foreknowledge of heavy terminal reliance of
linux will most likely presume that to change DE they'd have to run
another OS install, to then click openbox for the sake of it. I
imagine ubuntu would be extracting more value out of tempting to try
it if there was value added of easier DE gateways rather than in your
face terminal dependency that may make for novelty in itself until you
try and upgrade to 16.10 to brick your OS since supposedly you did
poor job of installing DEs.
