To quote Shuttleworth from the link I gave: "First, "binary
compatibility" means different things to different people."

To me, it means something different, namely that a Debian package is not
guaranteed to work correctly, work at all, or even install on Ubuntu.
IMHO it is flawed reasoning to declare that the fact that some packages
will usually work already defines binary compatibility.

It was. I don't know what more I can do if it doesn't convince you of
Shuttleworth himself clearly states that it isn't and that cases where
Debian packages work are up to chance.
